Melbourne’s First Optimist in Residence

Press Release

In a time characterised by pandemic-fear and business-gloom, the counter-play is realistic and infectious optimism.

What do you do to make it a reality?

National premium flexible workspace provider, Victory Offices leads the way in taking action to lift the spirit of our teams, members, stakeholders, and the wider community.

Victory Offices is pleased to announce today Victor Perton as their Optimist-in-Residence. He will spend three months in various Victory Offices locations, asking people: “What makes you optimistic?” to inspire individuals, teams, and corporations to think more positively, with an opportunity mindset.

Victor Perton is the Founder of the Melbourne-based Centre for Optimism. The Centre’s world-first Centre for Optimism closed like so many businesses during Melbourne’s lockdowns as roundtables and face-to-face gatherings became impossible. The Centre moved online and now has more than 5000 members and subscribers in 82 countries. The Centre has reopened physically in Collins Street thanks to the arrangement with Victory Offices.

Wendi Dawson, Chief Brand Officer at Victory Offices, said that the experience of Victor Perton as guest speaker, moderating and hosting Victory Offices events, such as The Melbourne Business Network Awards and the Dandenong Chamber of Commerce had been uplifting and gave people practical ways to lift optimism, innovation, and resilience.

“The benefit of our partnership with Victory Offices is that we can have physical gatherings in a COVID-safe environment”, said Mr Perton. “60% of our Melbourne based members are keen to get back to face-to-face gatherings. Equally, it provides the opportunity to spread realistic optimism through Victory’s incredible network of members and business relationships.”

“If any city needs a dose of optimism, it’s Melbourne,” said Ms Dawson. “Traditionally, Melbourne small business is more optimistic than the rest of Australia and Australia more than the rest of the world. Time to get back to that relentless optimism that characterises the entrepreneur, small businessperson, and the regular Australian! And with Victor, we are delighted to be leading the way.”

Is Flexible Workspace In Demand?

Written by Liam Wignell from The Property Tribune

A new report from CBRE has revealed that despite several months of lockdowns across Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra, office sublease availability across the major cities has fallen to the lowest level in a year.

The ‘Q3 2021 Sublease Barometers’ report shows that across the combined Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide markets, available space declined by 9.4% on a quarterly basis to 344,000 square metres. This had peaked at 428,600sqm in January. Sydney recorded a 20.9% decrease, while Melbourne fell 1.6%.

“Despite extended lockdowns in Australia’s two biggest office [spaces], the national sublease market continued to recover during Q3 underpinned by some major stock withdrawals, a slowing in new sublease availability and an uptick in sublease transactions,” said Mark Curtain, CBRE Pacific Head of Office Leasing.

What about Perth?

An interesting office space market to look at is Perth.

Both Perth and Adelaide have sublease availability at their lowest levels since before the pandemic began last year.

Both cities endured less time in lockdown or restrictions as compared to Melbourne and Sydney.

“With minimal Covid cases and Western Australia avoiding lockdowns throughout the majority of 2021, sublease availability has declined to 34,700sqm – the lowest level since June 2020,” noted Andrew Denny, Senior Director of Office Leasing for CBRE in WA.

“The decrease has been a result of multiple withdrawals from the market, as well as some sublease transactions.

“Information Media and Telecommunications and the Mining sectors continue to be the primary drivers of sublease availabilities, however, there were three withdrawals across these sectors throughout the quarter.”

Mr Denny added that while sublease availability in the Perth CBD market is minimal, 10,000sqm has been added to the market due to the nearly completed Capital Square Tower 2 building, accounting for 29% of all availability.

Alternative to office space


Due to only brief periods when it was mandated, working from home is not as commonplace in Perth compared to the eastern states.

However, this hasn’t stopped employees from wanting flexible arrangements such as flexible work spaces and arrangements.

The Property Tribune spoke to Claire Duncan of Victory Offices in Perth, a flexible work space provider that has 23 locations across Australia with over ten different office solutions.

Ms Duncan said working from home has been very appealing from the early stages of the pandemic due to enticing a better ‘work/life balance’ – but nonetheless, office workers miss certain aspects of an office environment.

“For many of those now returning to the office, they are doing so because working from home simply could not offer aspects that were critical to productivity & enjoyment of their day to day life,” she explained.

“These included a sense of community, face-to-face events, on-site support, superior IT setups & a definitive line between personal and professional life.”

“Whilst working from home may have some perks, many things simply cannot be brought into a home office. Working from home has challenges such as distractions (day time TV, children & regular fridge investigations).

“It can be difficult to ‘switch off’ from work when there is no clear distinction between one’s work / personal space.

“Many people are also accustomed to having worked their entire career from an office, so leaving this environment can mean that they are left without the structure & routines they have been used to for so long.”

Claire Duncan, Victory Offices Perth

While many people would assume flexible workspaces appeal most to early-stage
startups or creative businesses, many other industries – including mining – are interested
in flexible space.

“The reason flexible workspace is now so appealing is because of the flexibility it offers to businesses who may be in a stage of transition such as downsizing or upscaling.

“When comparing costs, flexible workspace is far more cost effective, offering businesses a [way] to include all outgoings, without the commitments of a long term commercial lease.”

Ms Duncan added that resources clients, in particular, find flexible workplaces appealing as they can quickly expand or downsize their office space in line with their project budgets.

“Likewise, projects can run longer than anticipated,” she added.

“The benefit of a flexible space is the option to extend without having to commit to a long term lease. In some instances what is critical is a fast and seamless set up of secure IT systems.

“On other occasions, OH&S requirements for staff are most important.”

Victory employs a tailored membership model where you only pay for services you use – which includes a dedicated receptionist, onsite barista, administration assistant, along with event and meeting coordinators.

In terms of the future, Ms Duncan said she doesn’t believe demand for flexible working
space will dissipate anytime soon.

“Flexible workspace will always be in high demand, as it caters to all demographics, is cost-effective, offers flexibility whilst never cutting back on premium inclusions.”

“We are prepared for a new era of business.”
