The speculative office development called Endeavour forms the fourth and final phase at the Sheffield Digital Campus (Sheffield DC)

US-based GMI Construction has been contracted to deliver the eight-storey Grade A office building, which offers floorplates of up to 10,323 sq ft.

A private 3,584 sq ft roof terrace on the sixth floor overlooking the city is also included.

Adam Varley, head of commercial at SGI, said: “We are delighted to report there is already strong interest from potential occupiers looking for a premium workspace with flexible, open plan floor plates in the city centre.

“The building’s impressive design really creates a sense of arrival, with a double-height entrance reception and new social space allowing visitors and colleagues to interact.”

The development, which has a gross development value (GDV) of £27m, will create up to 140 construction jobs and, once complete, will accommodate up to 800 office workers.

Kate Josephs, chief executive of Sheffield City Council, said: “Easily accessible, high quality office space is absolutely central to attracting investment into our region.”
