WELCOME TO LINAKER

For 30 years Linaker has specialised in the creation and maintenance of tailor-made business environments. Having shaped workspaces for a wide range of businesses across the country, Linaker’s heritage lies in our ability to design and regulate unique spaces that truly work.

Linaker was founded upon three core values: trust, reliability and care. We are not just a service provider, rather an essential part of our clients’ architecture and, ultimately, an extension of your business, a part of one team.

The last couple of years has seen Linaker grow exponentially and we are now looking to grow out our Business Performance team with the addition of a Transition Support on a permanent basis.
