BP has announced plans to relocate its global headquarters to Timber Square, marking a major commercial commitment to London’s South Bank.
The company has signed a 192,000-square-foot (17,837 square-meter) lease for the entire 15-story Ink building, developed by Landsec, accounting for more than half of the overall mixed-use office scheme. The move is expected to be completed by early 2028.
The relocation will consolidate BP’s leadership and technical teams, bringing together staff currently split between its existing headquarters at St James’s Square and its Sunbury campus. The move is notable not only as a major corporate relocation, but also for the building itself. Timber Square’s Ink tower is among Europe’s tallest steel-timber-concrete hybrid office buildings, reflecting the growing role of low-carbon structural systems in next-generation workplace design. The pioneering development proposes net zero offices and completed in 2026.
