About

An independent workspace consultancy built for enterprise decisions.

Eighteen years of commercial workspace practice across sixteen industries, five million square feet planned and a single operating principle: the client pays us, so the client's interest is the only interest we carry.

Overview

Overview

SJAIN Spaces is a commercial workspace consultancy advising enterprises on how much space they need, how it should perform and what it should cost — then governing the delivery of it.

Our Story

Our Story

Founded by practitioners who spent years inside fit-out projects watching capital leak through poor briefs, unclear scopes and vendor-led decisions. We built an advisory practice that sits entirely on the client side of the table.
