We couldn't be closer to the action in our London office. A 2minute walk from Tottenham Court Road station, round the corner from Soho and Oxford Street means you'll never be short of anywhere to go for a lunchtime stroll or a postwork drink. There's plenty of green space too with Regent's Park and Hyde Park not far away at all.
