I started work at InsideJapan one year and five days ago (how time has flown!), and I remember in my and Natasha’s induction week, we were told that we would be moving offices very soon. Due to events this year, we didn’t move quite as soon as we had imagined, but I am delighted to say that last weekend we moved into our shiny new office! It feels like such a journey, from when Al and Simon were going to look at offices, to being told that we had a new ‘tea solution’ to be revealed (it is a boiling water tap – how posh!) and being shown around whilst it was still being fitted out, to where we are sat now. We are so excited about the new office so I wanted to bring you on a guided tour.
When you first walk into the office, there is a client seating area. There much more space for welcoming clients in this office, so please do come and see us! On the window sill is the newest member of the IJT team, Neko-chan, who came back from Japan with Alastair a few weeks ago. He’ll be visiting lots of places across the UK in the coming months, so watch this space!
This is the main office area, with a beautiful Japanese maple tree on the feature wall. This is getting us in the mood for all the autumn trips we have coming up! The seat in the foreground is David’s…he is always getting nagged for not tucking his chair in!
At the other end of the office, The directors their own office at the end of the room. And you can see we are all enjoying ice-creams in the beautiful weather we’ve had this week!
If you have seen our brochure or our business cards, these images on the windows to the staff room and the meeting rooms might be familiar
Finally, we have no less than three balconies in our penthouse office; with views such as this one
I’m sure you can see why we are so pleased with our new office. A huge thank you to Al and Simon for sorting it all out for us. If you’re ever in Bristol, please stop by! We might even make you a brew with the hot water tap…
