"Following the acquisition of a company in Bournemouth, we decided to move our head office from Surrey to Dorset.  We believe that relocating to Bournemouth will benefit our business in many ways – from  improving quality of life for our people to lowering our cost base.

Although we're new to the area, I trust that Standard Life Healthcare will have a successful, prosperous future in its new home on the south coast."
