Energy expert Bergen Energi has moved its UK headquarters to new serviced offices in Leeds city centre. The energy service provider has transferred its management team, sales staff and customer liaison operations from its former site at Thorpe Park to the award winning Princes Exchange building.

The company which specialises energy procurement, risk management, contract negotiation and consultancy has taken a Regus suite in the eight floor glass sky scrapper designed by Carey Jones Architects to support its 20% turnover growth in 2010 and rapidly expanding team.

John Daynes, Vice President for the UK and Ireland at Bergen Energi UK, who spearheaded the move on behalf of the firm said he feels the new space reflects the firms professionalism perfectly and will provide an excellent platform for its ambitious 2011 expansion plans.

Mr Daynes said: "The Princes Exchange is a really remarkable building that has set the standard for Leeds office space since it was built in 1999. It's a very impressive facility with easy access for our clients and a great water front location. We believe it will make an excellent new home for us and being in the thick of the city's business community can only help us thrive even further.

"Bergen Energi UK has gone from strength to strength in the last couple of years in what has been a very challenging and increasingly competitive marketplace. We have managed to grow during the recession thanks to a major restructure of how we operate, recruitment of some very talented sales and customer support staff, by recognising the need to investment in the latest technical support facilities and to develop and strengthen our service offer with diversifications and innovations like our new sustainability solutions.”
