St James’s House is a Grade II listed office building in Birmingham, England.
The 1950s building was designed for the Engineering and Allied Employer’s Federation by the local architect, John Madin, and built from 1955–1957.[1][2] It is located at 16 Frederick Road, at its junction with St James Road (note spelling), in the Edgbaston district of the city.
It is one of fourteen post-war offices designed by leading architects listed by Historic England in January 2015.[1] They noted the "bold, modern exterior" and an interior designed to "forge constructive relations between employers and their workforce".[2]
