we make the difference

Landsec Victoria is a mixed-use portfolio, delivering world class offices, apartments, hospitality establishments, retailers and large areas of public space. The development incorporates over 2 million sq ft of building space, with 500,000 sq ft of world class offices, 170 prestigious apartments, a shopping centre, and some of London’s most exciting restaurants and bars. It includes a number of prestigious buildings, including Nova, Cardinal Place and 62 Buckingham Gate and sits on a busy transport interchange, resulting in extremely high public footfall.

Cardinal Place was a pioneer in ‘Third Spaces’ – areas that are neither workplace nor home, but a welcoming environment in which to relax or socialise in-between times. They include a 14,000 square foot first-floor business lounge and café which is filled with light from the floor-to-ceiling glazing and popular at all times of day, helped by the impressive views of Westminster Cathedral.

The prestigious estate requires the highest standards of horizontal, vertical and specialist cleaning, to support the image and reputation of the occupier brands, and the satisfaction of residents and visitors.

The development sits on a busy transport interchange, resulting in extremely high destination and transient footfall. The complexity compels a zero tolerance Health & Safety regime. Commercial occupiers, residents and retailers often have competing needs. The Nova residential component brings short windows of operation for any intrusive or noisy tasks, meaning high quality outcomes must be delivered through intensive activities and the most effective use of equipment.

Our operations are structured around the often-competing needs of commercial occupiers, residents, retailers and visitors, with bespoke shift patterns to maximise the working day and specialist equipment allowing intense activity whilst complying with noise restrictions.
