Our HQ · Penelope House

Welcome to the home of block management.

Most managing agents are a back office. We built Penelope House — a purpose-designed headquarters where technology, our team and your building all come together.

Purpose-built

A headquarters designed around better block management

Backed by recognised industry regulation and qualifications, our infrastructure is built specifically for delivering block management to freeholders, Residents' Management Companies and RTM companies. Penelope House brings our surveyors, managers, accounts and field teams under one roof — and gives our clients somewhere real to visit.

40+ years' experience 4,000+ units managed In-house teams under one roof

Our favourite features

The spaces that make us different

1

Mission Control

The nerve centre of Penelope House. Live data streams of reactive maintenance flow onto large wall-mounted screens, and connect our office team to field staff via GPS tracking — so time-sensitive issues get actioned fast across every managed site.

  • Centralised dashboards for instant updates
  • Office and field teams linked by GPS tracking
  • Real-time oversight of every building we manage
2

Collaboration Desk

A flexible, open-plan workspace right beside Mission Control, built for project planning and problem-solving. Staff work from laptops and move freely around the building, bringing different departments together to solve challenges in one place.

  • Bench-style seating and generous desk space
  • Bright, naturally-lit space with living planting
  • Cross-department collaboration by design
3

Key Zone

Managing keys and fobs for hundreds of blocks is easy to take for granted — so we gave it a dedicated, organised home. Sites are shown on a digital screen with allocated storage, keys are logged in and out with management software and tags, and we even cut our own spare keys in-house.

  • Digital screen indexing every site's storage location
  • Keys logged in/out via software & tags
  • In-house key cutting — faster service, no third-party wait
4

Staff Gym

A dedicated on-site gym, because looking after our team means they look after your building. Cardio, free weights and a comfortable space encourage people to take a break, stay active and come back sharper — which shows in the service our clients receive.

  • Full range of cardio machines and free weights
  • Air conditioning, screens and changing facilities
  • Part of a culture that invests in its people
