ExxonMobil’s Global Business Services Center has signed a lease, agreeing to occupy GTC’s entire Pillar office building, which is currently under construction and due for delivery early Q1 2022. This is the largest deal in an office building that is already under construction in the history of Hungarian office transactions. CBRE represented ExxonMobil in this record-breaking transaction.


ExxonMobil, being the sole tenant to occupy the building in the future, was involved in both the design and construction phases. Regular consultations between the parties ensure that Pillar is tailored to the tenant’s needs, ranging from environmentally conscious green solutions through electric vehicle charging facilities, restaurants, planned in-house daycare facilities for children, to other comfort services.

“Pillar will not only be an office building developed by the latest technology but also a place where people working for ExxonMobil will enjoy the time spent within the office, common areas, garden, restaurant, coffee shop and the gym. I am so happy I can be part of this amazing project with ExxonMobil. Signing the lease agreement is only a mid-station of the GTC ExxonMobil journey, that started 17 years ago,” says Bori Gedai Deputy Country Manager of GTC Hungary.

“We are proud of this significant milestone in the history of ExxonMobil Global Business Center Budapest. After having celebrated our 15 year anniversary earlier in 2019, we have now signed the lease agreement for a great new office building, which will enable ongoing growth and confirms ExxonMobil’s long term commitment to Hungary,” says Romke Noordhuis, Managing Director of ExxonMobil GBC Hungary.
