Jungle IT is expanding and the business delivers IT strategies and solutions. Richard Knight, operations director at the firm, said: “Our new facility is designed to promote modern ways of working, with flexible spaces that can be adapted to the differing needs of our team.

“The sustainable and lifestyle credentials of the facility will allow us to demonstrate to our staff, clients and prospects our investment in the well-being of our team and our commitment to innovation.”

Hands On Healthcare has also expanded within the studio space at the development, moving from a 14-desk space to 40-desks. The studios are designed to help smaller businesses grow with ease.

Frank Collins, at Hands On Healthcare, said: “We moved into Kirkstall Forge in July 2022. It has a great community feel and offers far more than just a space to work in. The contemporary space, activities, events and facilities ensure it is a fantastic environment for our team.

“The studios have eased our fast growth, taking the headache of running the office away so we can concentrate on growing our business.”

Emma Roe, front of house manager at Kirkstall Forge, said: “We are pleased to welcome another new business to the Kirkstall Forge business community.

“The site continues to be a popular choice with its dedicated railway station offering easy access to Leeds, Bradford and onto Manchester.

“It is a modern, inspiring environment designed to nurture smaller businesses as well as large corporates, with onsite facilities and events which help to attract and retain staff.”

Once complete, the £400m Kirkstall Forge scheme will be home to a mixed-use community comprising 1,050 homes, 300,000 sq ft of offices and 100,000 sq ft of retail, leisure and community space. Letting agents on The Studio offices are Leeds based WSB Property Consultants and Fox Lloyd Jones
