Costa Tanasa of Morgan Lovell has become the 2,000th employee to work at Oxford North.

Didcot-based Costa, who first joined Morgan Lovell in 2022 through an agency placement, has since become a permanent team member and helped deliver the fit out at 2 Fallaize Street, part of the £1.2 billion scheme.

Costa said: “It’s a real privilege to be part of such a prestigious project, where many top-tier construction companies are working together for Oxford North Ventures to build Oxford’s newest landmark.

“Working at Oxford North is a great experience, the site has a really positive energy, and there’s a strong sense of collaboration with everyone involved. Morgan Lovell has been focused on delivering high-quality laboratory spaces that reflect the ambition of the wider scheme, and it’s exciting to see how the development is already starting to shape the future of the area.

“Being based locally makes it even more meaningful as it’s not often you get to work on a project that’s right on your doorstep.”

Simon Ruck, managing director of Oxford North, said: “Reaching the 2,000th on-site employee is a tremendous achievement and a real marker of the momentum behind Oxford North as we deliver world-class laboratory and workspace for the UK’s science, technology and innovation sectors.

“We’re proud to be creating meaningful opportunities for local residents and supporting the wider regional economy as Oxford North continues to grow.”
