BRUSSELS – Some 50 employees of Grant Thornton Brussels have just moved into the modern office building located at Medialaan 50 in Vilvoorde. The full-service business adviser with expertise in auditing, accountancy, tax and legal advice and business advice has grown over the last few years and needs more space. With the move the organisation wants at the same time to take advantage of a more flexible way of working.
On 25 March the business adviser’s Brussels office took up residence at a new business location in the Brussels periphery: Medialaan 50 in Vilvoorde.
What with the DWVA consultants joining the firm at the end of 2017 and in light of Grant Thornton’s continued growth, it soon became clear that more space was needed. The office building on Medialaan is a modern, sustainable site. The new, larger offices are fitted out according to the principle of “activity-based working” – a concept that fosters collaboration and creativity, although the office space also affords staff the possibility of working in peace and quiet.
Koert Verbruggen, CEO of Grant Thornton Belgium, sees the move as a further step towards more flexible working: “The far-reaching flexibility in the new working environment encourages cross-pollination between our different departments. We are proud to be operating out of a top-class site from now on.”
The new offices also send a clear message to the market: “Grant Thornton’s growth in Belgium is continuing. We are convinced that the move will put our organisation even more emphatically on the map, both in Flanders and Wallonia”, adds Koert Verbruggen. “The new offices offer our employees a flexible working environment where working is a productive and pleasant experience. After all it is our staff who make our business successful, so we make every effort to create a working environment for them that is stimulating, challenging and enriching.”
