AN international trading company has chosen Birchwood to be the site of its newest branch.
FX Cartel has set up shop at Birchwood Park, on Birchwood Way.
The business focuses on the FX international market, one of the most actively traded markets in the world.
FX is traded on by businesses, individuals, and banks, with billions of pounds worth of forex transactions every single day.
FX Cartel provides education and training to those working in the foreign exchange trading space, which focuses on trading one currency to another.
This business will employ 30 people at its new Birchwood site, and will be training around 600 more people remotely around the globe from the office.
The location of the Park, coupled with the on-site facilities were leading factors behind the relocation – in particular the on-site gym, which the team believes will provide a great wellbeing service once settled in at the new office.
FX Cartel founder Sebastien Dubois said: “We are delighted to continue our expansion at Birchwood Park.
"As well as being a hotbed for entrepreneurship, to be situated right in the heart of the north west - and close to the M62 - will be a great benefit for our team.
“As well as the location, the various amenities and high-quality office space will only improve the wellness of our entire workforce, which is something we know Birchwood Park prioritises amongst its occupiers.
"As a company, wellbeing is also something we care very deeply about, so to have our own ambitions so closely aligned with the Park’s own culture made the decision to move that much easier."
Here at Birchwood Park, we design our offices and warehouses with flexibility in mind, ensuring your business needs are catered to from the very beginning 👨💼

Birchwood Park commercial director, Martin O'Rourke, added: "Like FX Cartel, we champion workplace wellbeing here at Birchwood Park and we’re proud to hear those the Park’s facilities, including the various food and drink outlets available to our occupiers and visitors alike, were driving factors behind the move.
"We hope to see members of the FX Cartel team both nationally and across the globe visit our Park in the coming months."
FX Cartel is now in the process of fitting out its offices at Bridgewater Place, one of the Park’s most stylish office blocks, accompanied with elegant landscaping and waterworks surrounding the offices.
