Who we are…
At ‘Together Paddington Works’, we believe that where you work matters just as much as how you work.
We operate two premium coworking spaces Paddington Works and Porchester Works offering beautifully designed studios, meeting rooms, and event spaces in the heart of West London. Our spaces are built around well-being, performance, and sustainability, with every detail carefully designed to support the physical, emotional, and cognitive health of our community. Alongside our commercial sites, we also manage 10 residential properties, including 4 premium apartments — all of which fall within the scope of this role.
Who you are…
