Onyx Group, which is headquartered at offices in Stockton-on-Tees, County Durham, has bolstered its business continuity services after striking a new deal with MWB, the second largest provider of serviced office space in the UK.

MWB will work with Onyx to deliver business continuity support to clients, providing comprehensive data protection, recovery sites to cover any eventuality, annual testing and full IT and network provision.

James Carver, managing director of business continuity and risk management at Onyx Group, believes the partnership will facilitate the Group’s ambitious growth plan: "Working with MWB will provide Onyx with an extended outreach into the UK market - especially London - bolstering the company’s existing portfolio of services while supporting the company’s strategic growth plan. MWB has over 40 sites in London providing instant, readily accessible back up for those who need it and allows businesses to ensure they have safeguards in place so that they don’t suffer as a result of any disaster that might occur."

John Spencer, CEO of MWB, said: “Business continuity management is such an important issue but can be overlooked by firms. That’s why we’re proud to have partnered with Onyx to offer peace of mind to companies so if disaster strikes, we can help them remain open and in business.”

Together with Onyx owned data centres, which enable businesses to outsource IT operations to save time, money and space, working with MWB strengthens Onyx’s position as a leading business continuity provider in the North East, and one of the key providers UK wide with over an existing 1000 seats across its estate.

Onyx also operates out of office space in Edinburgh, Gateshead and the City of London. With 65 locations in the UK MWB offering includes flexible serviced offices in Central London, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Manchester, Nottingham and Oxford.
