Camberley has become a standout choice for businesses seeking a strategic, well-connected location in the South East. It combines the strengths of a growing commercial centre with excellent transport links, access to skilled talent and an appealing local environment that supports both productivity and wellbeing.
At Arena Offices, we recognised the growing demand for high-quality workspace in the region a few years ago, which is why we opened our fully serviced centre, Riverside Way, in Camberley. It provides an ideal base for businesses looking to make their mark, with flexible offices, modern amenities and a location that supports growth and innovation.
Business community
Camberley has built a strong reputation as a hub for business growth and enterprise. From local offices to coworking centres, the town hosts a diverse business ecosystem and multiple networking opportunities. For example, the monthly First Friday Networking event in Camberley brings together business owners and professionals in a relaxed setting to exchange ideas and make connections.
In addition, the Enterprise Nation campaign named Camberley the UK’s “Top Town for Business” in 2022, recognising its strong business-support infrastructure, high-quality flexible workspace and vibrant entrepreneurial spirit.
Talent pool
Camberley benefits from access to an educated and motivated workforce, thanks to nearby higher-education institutions and training initiatives. Employers in the region can draw from graduates and professionals skilled in technology, business services and more.
For example, the University of Surrey in Guildford offers world-class teaching and research across engineering, business and digital disciplines. Nearby respected schools such as Collingwood College in Camberley, which serves ages 11-18 with a strong sixth-form offering, also feed into the local labour pool. Additionally, preparatory institutions like Lyndhurst School ensure a continuing pipeline of future talent locally.
Local associations such as Collectively Camberley support over 380 businesses in the town centre, building a bridge between business and talent, which strengthens the local labour market and increases the demand for having an office in Camberley.
Quality of life
Camberley offers a compelling mix of professional environment and local amenities that contribute positively to wellbeing and team retention. The town centre has recently undergone a major redevelopment framework, the Camberley Town Centre Strategic Vision to 2034, published in late 2024, which sets out a clear plan to boost public-realm enhancements, new leisure facilities and improved connectivity across the town.
Professionals based here benefit from a suburban-town setting that still offers quick access to green space, retail and leisure facilities and good transport links. All of these factors help make the workplace more appealing and the location more sustainable for staff who value a high-quality environment.
Transport links
Positioned close to key routes including the M3 and A30, Camberley offers quick and efficient road connections across the South East. Heathrow Airport is around 20 miles away, making international travel straightforward for visiting clients and business trips. The town is also well placed for access to surrounding commercial centres such as Reading, Guildford and Farnborough, ideal for organisations working across regional client bases.
On the rail network, improvements to local services have enhanced commuter convenience in recent years. Camberley Station also provides regular trains to London. These connections support both hybrid and on-site working patterns, ensuring staff can travel with ease and businesses remain accessible to partners and customers.
Competitive business costs
Compared with London and other major cities, Camberley offers more competitive office rental rates and lower overall business costs. Camberley averages around £16-£29 per m² per month, versus London’s £83-£90 per m² per month. That’s around three to five times cheaper, freeing up valuable budget to invest in growth, talent and business development rather than high overheads.
At Arena Offices, we’ve seen how Camberley’s combination of cost-effective workspace, excellent connectivity, and strong local talent makes having an office in Camberley popular. Our fully serviced office centre, Riverside Way, provides flexible offices, modern facilities and a professional environment that helps businesses thrive.
