Unity Place will bring together Santander’s 6,000 employees who are currently spread across four sites in Milton Keynes.
Work has started to build Santander UK’s landmark new workplace in Milton Keynes. Procured by Osborne+Co for Santander and designed by LOM, Unity Place will be a centre for digital banking innovation and will incorporate a range of community facilities. With a total construction area of 800,000 sq ft and over 550,000 sq ft of commercial office space, this will be one of the largest office developments to be completed in the UK over the next few years outside London.

The total office space area of around 550,000 sq ft is equivalent to over eight and a half football pitches.
Designed to achieve a WELL ‘Gold’ certification, this vibrant new workplace will nurture collaboration and support staff health and wellbeing. It has also been conceived to help attract the next generation of talent who will drive the banking sector in the future.
The scheme will be the focal point for Santander’s UK business and the local community. It includes coworking space for small businesses and start-ups. The public will be encouraged to use its facilities including an ‘urban market’, retail outlets, health facilities including gym, yoga and consultation spaces, community hall and auditorium. There is also a rooftop running track and café/restaurant with terrace.
