Operating in the world of Facilities Management recruitment, the impact that the pandemic has had on the “traditional” workplace and corporate real estate could easily be a cause for concern for professionals in our position. Although there has been a significant impact on how and where we work, we are optimistic that there will be the same, if not an increased demand for corporate real estate moving forward.
Although many people may have been able to effectively work remotely, there are still significant disadvantages to having a remote, dispersed workforce. Shared office spaces will still be needed to meet, share ideas, collaborate, and even just socialise with colleagues. We may see a move towards a mixed model of office and remote working in a lot of organisations, however the need for Corporate Real Estate will always be there.
