Plexus has quietly put its entire London office up for rent. It has not informed staff and told RollOnFriday it was just "subletting some empty space".
The insurance defendant claims firm, which was 'saved' by a management buy-out when the Parabis group collapsed into administration, occupies the third and ninth floors of Peninsula House near Monument station. But not for long. Both floors are being let in their entirety, the ninth for £579,024 and the third for £872,798.26.
Commercial surveyors have been advertising the offices since 25th July as available in their current condition or, if you'd rather not have the whiff of tort manuals lingering in the air, stripped out. The ninth floor is already under offer. Not that Plexus employees who work there know about it. A source told RollOnFriday, "nothing is being mentioned to staff. Again".
When RollOnFriday asked Plexus why it was letting its London premises, Head of Legal Practice Development Mark Marshall said, "We are sub-letting some empty office space we have in London". That will come as a surprise to the dozens of staff there.
Marshall, who also works in Peninsula House despite his assurance it is empty, was subsequently informed that RollOnFriday knew the firm was letting the entirety of both floors. He did not respond to further requests for comment. The firm also did not respond when asked to explain why it was leasing its whole office, what was going to happen to the staff and whether Plexus was aware that it had lots of people inbetween all the empty space.

Surely this all points to the closure of all their southern operations and retiring back up North from whence they came?
