Jaguar Land Rover Australia’s new head office in Mascot, Sydney comes with in-built EV charging infrastructure.
JLR’s new crib also comes with 13 electric vehicle charging stations for employee use, in time for the recent arrival of the Jaguar I-Pace electric SUV and what the company describes as “an EV-rich future”.
The 3.2 square kilometre, three-story building is not only bigger and better, but is also much closer to Sydney airport than its old North Ryde base.
The $6 million Mascot HQ comes with a decked-out technical training academy, with 150 office workstations, 20 conference rooms, five large training rooms, and a gym.
The JLR head office will be a busy place in the coming year, as the training academy expects to host 138 technical training courses in the new facility from next year to 2020, with a further 2800 delegates passing through for 182 customer experience programs.
The JLR hive will have 100 staff coming and going full time, and will be the “nerve centre” for the brands’ 46 Aussie dealerships.
Jaguar Land Rover Australia managing director Mark Cameron says the new base camp will support the big events coming for the brand locally in 2019, including two major product launches.
“We now have a head office and training facilities that align with our newest retail facilities and gives our employees an inspiring work environment,” Cameron says.
“It is an era in which we will have sales growth, expanded model line-ups and breakthrough technology,” he adds.
