How much does office space in Aberdeen cost?

As a guide, a private serviced office in Aberdeen runs from about £230 to £370 per desk per month, all-inclusive. City Centre / Union Street is the most expensive area at up to £380 per desk, while Westhill starts nearer £220. A dedicated coworking desk starts around £77 and a virtual office from £28 a month. These are indicative estimates — we confirm live pricing on enquiry.

What is included in a serviced office price in Aberdeen?

Almost always: rent, business rates, service charge, utilities, building insurance, cleaning, furniture, superfast internet, reception and access to shared breakout space. Usually extra: car parking, additional meeting room hours beyond your credits, dedicated IT lines, storage, printing above a fair-use allowance and any bespoke fit-out or branding.

Can I rent office space in Aberdeen short term?

Yes. Coworking memberships in Aberdeen run month to month, and most private offices are available from three months upwards. Twelve months is the usual break point where operators start discounting — below that you pay for flexibility, above it you trade some flexibility for a better rate.

Which areas of Aberdeen are cheapest for office space?

Westhill currently offers the lowest indicative rates in Aberdeen, from around £220 per desk per month. Dyce / Airport is also worth checking. If your team is price-sensitive, sitting one district out from the prime pitch typically saves 20–30% for a walk of a few minutes.

Should I choose Regus or WeWork in Aberdeen?

Regus (part of IWG) has the widest network in Aberdeen and beyond, with the broadest range of contract lengths and a consistent, corporate finish. WeWork operates fewer, generally more central and more design-led buildings that suit teams under 50 who want an open, social environment. We are independent of both and will price them side by side, along with local operators who are often cheaper than either.

How quickly can we move into an office in Aberdeen?

Fitted, furnished space in Aberdeen can usually be occupied within 24 to 72 hours of signing. Managed or bespoke fit-outs take four to twelve weeks depending on the scope. Tell us your target date and we will only shortlist buildings that can actually meet it.

Is Flex Group Search free to use in Aberdeen?

Yes. Our search, shortlist, viewings and negotiation support are free to you. We are paid a finder's fee by the operator once you move in, which is why we show you the whole Aberdeen market rather than a single brand.

What does flexible workspace in Aberdeen actually mean?

In Aberdeen it covers four things: serviced offices on a licence, coworking memberships, managed offices fitted to your brand, and day or hybrid passes. All of them bundle rent, rates, service charge, utilities and facilities into one monthly fee, and all of them can be exited far faster than a lease. Our guide to what's included breaks down where each product stops.

Is managed office space available in Aberdeen?

Yes. Managed office space in Aberdeen typically starts to make sense at around 20 desks, and prices at roughly £196–£340 per desk per month on a 24–60 month term. You get your own fitted floor and branding without the fit-out capital cost or dilapidations liability of a lease.

How much office space do we need in Aberdeen?

Plan on 50–70 sq ft per person for a modern flexible office in Aberdeen, plus meeting and breakout space you can share rather than own. Most teams over-specify by 20% at first search; we size the brief against your actual attendance pattern before shortlisting.

The market

Renting office space in Aberdeen

Aberdeen's office market has rebalanced from oil and gas towards renewables and energy transition, which has left good-quality flexible space available at competitive rates.

Energy — traditional and renewable — subsea engineering, food and drink, and a major harbour expansion.

The strongest demand in Aberdeen comes from Energy, Subsea engineering, Renewables and Food and drink. That mix shapes what is available: Regus, Spaces and Scottish independents.

If you are searching for office space to rent in Aberdeen, shared office space, a private office for a small team, or simply a registered office address, the same rule applies — the advertised rate is a starting point. Operators price against occupancy, so the same suite can move by 15% depending on when you ask and who else is asking. We benchmark it for you.

Important: where this page uses the words “rent”, “rental”, “lease” or “let” to describe workspace, those terms are used for descriptive and search purposes only. The agreement offered by flexible workspace operators is a licence to occupy, not a lease or tenancy, and it does not confer security of tenure under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954.
