The Ned & Ned's Club

In the 1920s the Midland Bank was one of the largest and most powerful in the world. To celebrate its achievements, the bank wanted a new London headquarters – a building that would stand out from the strait-laced Victorian architecture of The City. There was only one person to turn to: Sir Edwin Landseer Lutyens, known to friends and family as ‘Ned.’  Lutyens, who was an architect for the rich and famous, spent the next four years drafting a vast 29,450sqm Grade-I listed building, designed to convey the impression of dependability and security demanded by a bank. The Midland Bank was later bought by HSBC, which remained in the building until 2007 when it relocated to a new head office in Canary Wharf.  Five years later, in 2012, Ron Burkle fell in love with the space and saw an opportunity to create a new approach to hospitality. He set about transforming the building into The Ned. The opening of The Ned in 2017 was one of London’s most ambitious hotel launches in recent decades, with a team working tirelessly for five years to repurpose the iconic building and make it relevant once again.  The Ned expanded in 2022 to include The Ned NoMad in New York and The Ned Doha in Qatar, with each building having their own architectural significance and history. Coming in 2024 is Ned's Club Washington, DC, the very first standalone members only property. Regardless of location, the ethos of The Ned and Ned's Club remains the same; to create a space for like-minded professionals to meet, work and have a good time. Working at The Ned and Ned's Club means having some of the best reward packages in the business, an inclusive workplace with a lot of fun, amazing teammates and endless opportunities to grow your career in hospitality. #lovethened
