Our Past and Future

We are a brother and sister team who have been involved in the Serviced Office Industry for over 25 years.  Our parents opened one of the first - what were then called Business Centres, in Northampton in 1979 and were actively involved in shaping the Industry as it is known today. We owned and ran City Executive Centres Ltd which was a serviced office company that set up and managed Serviced Offices for the benefit of landlords and investors. The company when it was sold to MWB Business Exchange in 2005 had 13 centres across the UK and was the only company of its kind. We were keen to return to the industry after expanding our skills and knowledge in other areas for a few years and Office Space in Town Ltd was opened in 2009. You can see what we have been doing as OSiT since then on our timeline -
