| Direct-to-operator | Yes — every enquiry goes direct | No — routed via broker team |
| Reverse marketplace | Broadcast — operators pitch you | No — you search, they match |
| Spaces available | 15,000+ globally | UK + Australia |

We're not going to pretend they're not good at some things. They are.
Office Hub operates in both the UK and Australia — useful if you need to search both markets simultaneously.
Workspace consultants walk you through the process — hands-on for teams that want someone to manage the search.
From hot desks to entire floors, Office Hub covers a broad range of workspace types across both markets.
These aren't arguments. They're structural differences you can verify yourself.
Seek lists 15,000+ buildings globally. Office Hub covers the UK and Australia. Different inventory scale.
Office Hub earns when you sign. Their consultant's incentive, at some level, is a longer or larger deal. Seek charges operators a flat monthly subscription — nothing from your deal.
Every enquiry goes straight to the operator. You negotiate with the person who owns the building, not a intermediary who earns a percentage of the result.
Three-minute quiz. Operators pitch you directly. No broker, no fee.

Peter spent years as a commercial property broker watching tenants pay 10–15% of their annual rent in fees they didn't see coming. Seek is his answer: a direct-to-operator platform where operators pay a flat subscription and tenants pay nothing. The incentive structures are completely different.
Broker fees are typically 10% of the annual rent — sometimes 15%. The figures below show what that actually means on a lease. Seek charges operators a flat monthly subscription. There's nothing equivalent.
