Contracts manager Sean Homer said: "Having established a reputation for being strategically positioned to serve our clients' needs, we see our new office at Quartz Point as an important next step towards further growth of our project portfolio in the UK."

Tim Bromley-Martin, asset management director at landlord Colmore Capital, added: "PJ Hegarty is exactly the type of business we envisaged attracting to Quartz Park when we first brought the office units to market at the back of last year.

"The business is on an upward trajectory and sees a quality office presence in the Midlands as being key to accelerating that growth even further."

PJ Hegarty joins other recent lease deals on the park, in Stonebridge Road, including adoption agency Adoption Is 4 U.

The lease deal was brokered by Birmingham-based agency KWB.
