extraSlice has hired flexible workspace veteran Scott Warner as VP Growth to help its expansion in the
greater Seattle area, then regionally and nationwide.
Warner spent the last 20 years marketing, selling, and developing serviced offices, coworking and
flexible workspace properties starting with Regus (now IWG) in 1999 as its first US Marketing Director.
He most recently served as Founding Partner for ManagedLease®, a corporate real estate consulting
group specializing in flexible workspace transactions and development for tenants, CRE brokerage,
owners and investors.
“Today extraSlice is a single location operator with 40,000 SF of dedicated, private workspace ranging
from coworking seats to furnished single tenant suites of all sizes, generally up to 50,000SF in size,
equipped and wired for immediate working occupancy on “elastic terms.” says Warner. “But by this time
next year, we’re targeting an additional 150,000 to 300,000 SF in multiple locations throughout Seattle
and beyond.”
When asked how COVID-19 and other uncertainties will impact growth plans, Warner explains “In a
word, ‘Dynamically!’ No doubt demand will be weak for most of this year, but come Q4 2020, we expect
demand to escalate as businesses can no longer put off office lease decisions. Even with home
working, downsizing, social distancing and fewer office workers, most businesses still require offices.
Our solutions are “best business case of office space” when compared with almost all other
alternatives. Our unique difference is the ability to offer larger turn-key offices with rolling termination
clauses and unlimited expansion options so the office can grow, contract or dispose pretty much on-
demand, and change as business changes. If tenants shop us, they will lease us. We just make too
much sense compared to fixed conventional leases, co-working or shared offices. CFO’s love we can
scale their offices up, down or out, especially as we all emerge post-COVID.”
extraSlice co-Founder and co-CEO Binu Reghunathan adds “Scott brings experience and methodology
that’s in-line with our philosophy and business culture, and key to scaling extraSlice in uniquely
profitable ways. He provides us a strong advantage in executing our business plans in the region and
beyond.
