About the project
The Maitland Workplace Hub will consolidate multiple government agencies into one workplace, by creating a modern, open fit-out that supports a collaborative, flexible, hybrid way of working.
The workplace will also provide flexible space for travelling employees to drop-in and work when in the Hunter region.
The fit-out will reduce the government’s office space in Maitland, operational costs and its environmental footprint, while providing a modern regional workplace consistent with metropolitan locations.
Regional government workplace hubs:
- enable and support government employees to live and work in the regions, closer to the people they serve, to help build deeper connections with local communities
- encourage collaboration, innovation and increase employee productivity
- help attract and retain a greater diversity of talented workers in regional NSW
Background
Property and Development NSW currently leases workspace across 3 buildings in Maitland. With some leases expiring in 2023, there was an opportunity to consolidate agencies into one building, reducing the government’s overall office footprint and costs.
