Your questions answered
Common questions
What is the average price of office space in Scotland?
Office space in Scotland typically costs between £200 and £500 per desk per month for flexible workspace, with Edinburgh and Glasgow commanding the top of the range. Premium suites in Edinburgh’s New Town and Glasgow’s International Financial Services District can reach £600 per desk for the best product. Aberdeen sits 15 to 25 percent below Edinburgh, driven by the oil and gas cycle. Dundee and Dunfermline offer equivalent product at 30 to 45 percent lower pricing.
What office space options are available in Scotland?
Scotland offers two main types of flexible workspace: serviced offices and coworking spaces. Serviced offices provide private fitted suites on short-term contracts with reception and meeting rooms included. Coworking delivers hot desks and dedicated desks in shared professional environments. Managed offices provide a bespoke private floor designed, fitted and operated by a provider on a single monthly fee covering furniture, technology and building services.
Where are the main business districts in Scotland?
Scotland’s principal office markets are Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Dundee and Dunfermline. Edinburgh is the financial capital, with Georgian townhouses in the New Town and modern towers in the Exchange District, home to RBS, Standard Life and the Scottish Parliament. Glasgow’s Merchant City, International Financial Services District and Finnieston anchor the commercial hub. Aberdeen’s Union Street supports the energy industry, and Dundee’s V&A quarter anchors design.
How long do I have to commit to office space in Scotland?
Flexible office space in Scotland is available from one month upwards, with most operators offering rolling monthly or 12-month agreements inclusive of furniture, utilities, cleaning and reception. This contrasts with the conventional Scottish commercial lease, which typically runs 5 to 10 years on a full repairing and insuring (FRI) basis with occupier responsibility for repairs, service charge, non-domestic rates and dilapidations at lease end, broadly similar to the English FRI model.
Which industries are strongest in Scotland's office market?
Scotland’s office demand is led by financial services, oil and gas, technology, tourism, life sciences and renewable energy. Edinburgh anchors banking through RBS and Standard Life, alongside technology through Skyscanner and FanDuel. Glasgow concentrates professional services and engineering. Aberdeen is the UK capital of oil and gas through Shell UK and BP. Dundee leads gaming through Rockstar North, and the North Sea anchors a growing offshore wind and renewable energy cluster.
