Market Insights: Australia's Flexible Office Space Market Report - Q3 2024
Here are the best flexible offices for teams of 20. If you need more or less space, just get in touch we'll find you the perfect space.
To be successful, your business needs to be agile, efficient, and flexible - so why not work in an office that matches your needs?
For small businesses of up to 20 people, a couple of new hires can be a big deal relative to the size of the company. And whether your business is growing or downsizing, change often feels like the new normal. But as your needs change so does the office you inhabit.
For many dynamic businesses, the idea of being locked into a fixed traditional lease for 5 years is pretty scary. In the worst cases making hiring decisions based on your office capacity is the wrong way around... your office space should support your company's growth not impede it.
To that end, more growing companies are renting flexible office space that matches their business and team dynamic, and here's why:
Similar to the business lifecycle, as your business grows and expands you will need your office to do the same. You might have set up the Sydney office with just a couple of people and have great plans for growth, but without a crystal ball signing a 5 year lease is a big risk. With business booming you're soon up to 5 staff, with plans to get to 10, but will it stop there or keep going, or what happens if there's a slowdown?
Ultimately you want, the growth of your business and hiring of staff to be based on commercial decisions, and not constrained by your physical space.
For lean and dynamic businesses, everyone is focused on winning new contracts and earning revenue. When there isn't a dedicated office manager the trap is to overload someone in the office with the additional responsibility and at best it distracts them from their core role and at worst they leave and you have to rehire and train a replacement. That's something else that's great about renting a serviced office or sharing office space - all the office management jobs are taken care of for you. You just take care of business!
Rubberdesk was founded in the heart of Manly in a small 2 person office shared with other like-minded businesses. Founders Jim and David got the business off the ground and within a short amount of time found themselves needing an office that matched the growth of the business. Taking a much larger space only a couple of buildings down, the new Rubberdesk HQ comfortably fits up to 12 people giving them room to expand when they need to.
"As your business grows, you need to find an office that grows with you. You can't do that when you're locked into a 5 year lease. Flexible office space has given Rubberdesk and hundreds of other businesses just like us, the flexibility we need to continue to grow in the future." Said Jim Groves, Rubberdesk CEO and Founder
