Our workplaces of the future

1 Elizabeth Street, Sydney

Located at the heart of Sydney's CBD and rising into the city’s expanding skyline, Macquarie’s new state-of-the-art global headquarters at 1 Elizabeth Street brings together our Sydney teams in one campus for the first time in more than 25 years, better supporting our future growth, evolution and globally connected culture.

660 Fifth Avenue, New York

Situated in the heart of New York, Macquarie’s new Americas headquarters at 660 Fifth Avenue represents more than 30 years of growth and innovation in the region. The next-generation space has been designed to enhance collaboration across our businesses and with colleagues and partners around the world.

Our office in Paris

Located on the Champs-Élysées with direct views of the Grand and Petit Palais, Macquarie’s office in Paris unites the old with the new – through state-of-the-art facilities and dedicated working zones, the office reflects our commitment to innovation and collaboration in one, dynamic location. 

Our office in Milan

Located in the heart of Italy’s industrial and financial capital, our Milan office was designed with a focus on connectivity, sustainability and comfort. Powered by renewable energy, with recycled natural materials throughout, and a 'living wall' centerpiece, it has been created as a workplace where wellness and productivity can coexist.

Our office in Brisbane

Oriented around a central atrium featuring our signature staircase in vibrant maroon, which connects teams across three floors, our new Brisbane office has been designed to enhance cross-Group collaboration and contribute to the sense of community. The workplace includes flexible spaces that adapt to meet our businesses’ dynamic needs, new technology to connect teams globally and has sustainability embedded into its design.

Our office in Philadelphia

Our Leesman+ certified office in Philadelphia was designed with the primary goal of creating a human-centric environment that encourages a net-positive impact for our employees and guests. Developed as an adaptable kit-of-parts, the office design creates a series of workspace neighbourhoods, each with a diverse complement of focus rooms, phone booths and collaborative spaces.

Our office in Hong Kong

The award-winning redesign of our Hong Kong office began as a small-scale light renovation and evolved into a greater opportunity to improve how the space facilitated collaboration. The design fosters connection between our staff through a hospitality-driven experience. Curated destinations connect the office horizontally and vertically and activated corridors connect teams as informal destinations throughout the day.
