Form’s Jack Pinkney on why workplaces must evolve to meet staff needs

Form’s Director of Property Management, Jack Pinkney, has been featured in Property Week, contributing to a wider industry conversation on why workplaces must continue to evolve to reflect the changing needs of people.

Speaking to journalist Greg Pitcher, Jack shared his perspective on how expectations of the workplace have shifted, with employees now looking for environments that support wellbeing, flexibility, and a sense of purpose, rather than simply a place to work.

“Workplaces need to respond to how people actually want to work today. When space supports wellbeing, flexibility, and connection, it becomes a driver of performance rather than just a cost.”

Jack’s contribution reflects Form’s broader approach to property management, where the focus extends beyond day-to-day operations to the lived experience of the people using a building. As occupiers reassess how space supports culture, productivity, and retention, the role of the workplace is increasingly central to business success.

At Form, this means managing buildings as active environments that adapt over time, balancing operational excellence with human-led design, strong amenity, and thoughtful engagement with occupiers.

Jack’s comments sit within a growing recognition across the sector that buildings which fail to evolve risk losing relevance, while those that prioritise people are better placed to retain occupiers and long-term value.
