Who uses coworking space?

Our coworking space clients typically fall into the following categories:

• Entrepreneurial - Small businesses or enterprises which do not wish to make the financial commitment to a longer term lease agreement. This class of client likely also benefits from not having to add administrative and support personnel to payroll, with all the pursuant HR costs (benefits, insurance, recruitment).
• Locational - Businesses which are typically headquartered abroad or in another region of the UK which require a business presence in London. Very often, these are sales or business development teams.
• Overflow - Typically a large company experiencing growth, with traditional leased space in London. These can be short-term requirements (3-6 months) for a small number of users.
• Interim - Clients that are in the process of moving from one space to another, and may be facing delays in the completion of the new space.
• Project-based - Clients that have a specific need for office space, based on a specific contract or project. Examples include film production teams.

Why rent a desk?

Renting a desk at the Rentadesk coworking community is a cost effective solution to working in central London, allowing you to keep your office space expenses to a minimum and allowing you to grow and shrink easily at short notice.

Whether you need to take on a full time employee, or need space for an intern for a few months, coworking space is perfect for a dynamic young business.

As well as the financial flexibility of renting a desk, you will find a (possibly unexpected) and very welcome benefit of working in the inspirational company of like-minded freelancers and small businesses in a creative environment.

Coworking space for Freelancers

As a freelancer the one thing you need to keep a strict eye on is your expenses, which is why many freelancers start by working from home. At first the novelty and flexibility of working from home are a welcome change from the rigid 9 to 5 working patterns of conventional office life.

However within a few months, the advantages start to wane and the loss of social contact, stimulation of meeting different people each day, together with the distractions of home working start to look less appealing.

For these reasons I started the Rentadesk coworking community in Soho, to create a place where like-minded freelancers could share space, ideas and create a focused and fun working environment for ourselves.

If you are home-bound or client-bound freelancer and are intrigued by what working at a coworking community is like, come and try us out on any weekday at noon. Bring along your laptop, make yourself a cup of coffee in the kitchen and (hopefully) absorb the motivating environment!
