Who’s Involved in a Successful Office Move?

Who’s Involved in a Successful Office Move?

Moving offices isn’t a one-person job. Behind every smooth and stress-free relocation is a carefully coordinated team of people, both internal and external, working together to ensure everything runs like clockwork.
Whether you’re downsizing, upgrading, or simply relocating, understanding who needs to be involved from the outset can make all the difference. Here’s a breakdown of the key players who contribute to a successful office move:

Internal Roles

Project Lead

At the heart of every office move is a strong project lead. This person acts as the central coordinator, overseeing timelines, budgets, and decision-making. They’re the go-to person for updates and act as the main liaison between internal teams and external suppliers.

IT & Tech

From server rooms to software systems, your IT team plays a vital role in ensuring tech continuity. They’ll be responsible for planning the safe disconnection, transportation, and reconnection of all IT infrastructure, as well as coordinating with any external partners to minimise downtime.

HR & Comms

Moving offices isn’t just about the physical space — it impacts people, too. Your HR and internal communications teams will help manage change, keeping staff informed, engaged and supported throughout the process.

Department Representatives

Each department has unique needs, so appointing a rep from every team is essential. These reps will help coordinate packing, identify critical items, and ensure that their department’s specific requirements are factored into the move.
