Simon will be reporting directly to Vicky Patterson, SEGRO's Regional Manager. Vicky Comments: "We are delighted to have Simon onboard and I am confident, judging from his previous track record, that he will deliver the best customer service for our occupiers. Customers will be able to get everything they need to know about Winnersh Triangle from Simon. Simon will also be able to personally assist all new occupiers with their transition to our business park and help customise their offices to the work environment they desire."

Winnersh Triangle is immediately adjacent to the A329(M), one mile from Junction 10 of the M4 and is bordered by the Reading-Waterloo line with its own railway station. The site is also well served by bus, having a 10-minute shuttle service to Central Reading. Winnersh Triangle is only 37 miles from Central London by road and 20 miles from the M25.

The first phase is part of wider improvements planned for the 80 acre (32 hectare) site, which will see Winnersh Triangle transformed into a state-of-the-art business park, increasing its available floor space by approx 50% to two million sq ft, creating a modern, dynamic environment for businesses.
