Naylors completes multimillion-pound Gateway House refurbishment doubling True Potential's Newcastle capacity

England-based Naylors has completed a multimillion-pound office development in Newcastle, which doubles the head office footprint of UK financial advice firm True Potential, Insider Media reported.

True Potential, which has more than 1,100 UK financial advisors, appointed Naylors in 2024 to advise on acquiring additional office space to facilitate rapid company expansion.

Chartered building surveyor and partner Scott Clarke led a 12-month transformation of the purpose-built office which was formerly a multi-tenant property. Located adjacent to True Potential's headquarters, Newburn House, the addition of Gateway House has doubled the firm's total on-site capacity.

Naylors appointed Chameleon Business Interiors as the main contractor to deliver the design and fit-out of the building.

Scott Clarke said the ambitious project transformed a series of individual units into one large, open-plan office space over three floors.
