Barnett Waddingham strengthens Scottish presence with Glasgow office move

Professional services consultancy Barnett Waddingham (BW) has relocated its Glasgow office to Cadworks, one of the UK’s most sustainable office developments and the first net zero building in the city.

The move from West George Street to the seventh floor of Cadworks marks a key milestone in BW’s long-term growth strategy in Scotland and follows the firm’s acquisition by global insurance and employee benefits intermediary Howden.

BW has had an established presence in Glasgow since 2003, providing services across pensions, risk, insurance, and investment.

The new office will serve as a hub for continued expansion, supporting the firm’s hybrid working model and employee wellbeing, as well as enhancing collaboration with clients.

Cadworks’ environmental credentials align with BW’s own net-zero commitments and reflect its goal of operating sustainably while supporting business growth.

Andrew Vaughan, senior partner at Barnett Waddingham, said: “This relocation to Cadworks marks a significant investment and demonstrates our long-term commitment to our Scottish clients.

“As part of Howden, we are stronger together, and this move positions us perfectly to deliver enhanced service to our clients while supporting our team’s continued growth. With this move, we are committed to securing better futures for clients, colleagues, and communities across Scotland.”

Barry McKay, head of public sector and Glasgow office lead at Barnett Waddingham, said: “Our new home at Cadworks provides the perfect platform for our next phase of growth in Scotland.

“This fantastic central location gives us the space and capability to expand our services while building on the close client relationships that have been central to our success here for over two decades.”

Lisa McMinn, head of SIPP operations at Barnett Waddingham, added: “Having been part of BW’s journey in Glasgow over the past 22 years, it’s exciting to see how far we’ve come and where we’re heading.

“Our move to one of the UK’s most sustainable buildings reflects our ongoing evolution as a business.”
