Brief
Restack circa 6,000 employees over a 12 month period
The relocation programme included a combination of 2 building closures and 3 building restacks following refurbishments.
Active's Approach
Following the successful initial phase to relocate 1,000 people over 4 consecutive weekends Active was appointed to manage subsequent phases which would see 6,000 people physically move. This phased programme came to an end in January 2017.
An internal experienced Move Manage rappointed to run the entire programme, providing a consistent point of contact throughout.
Working very closely with Nationwide's Workplace Transformation Team and Departmental Leadership Active was responsible for creating and managing the entire move programme which include dall inter-dependencies. We quickly established very good working relationships with all parties including third party contractors stepping in and out of the programme.
Successful Outcome
Nationwide featured Active in their internal December magazine profiling the works carried out, in particular over one weekend we moved 500 people which whilst challenging was successfully executed.
Active received many testimonials throughout the programme but one sums it up 'Thanks for making all Projects this year such a success', Jason Stalker, Senior Project Manager.
Ongoing Retention
Activehas been retained by Nationwide since this 2017 programme, servicing ongoing churn requirements as well as workplace reorganisation post-pandemic.
