I'm building up a branch of my business that is in a different county to head office (where the majority of staff currently are). I'm aiming to build up a presence in the new area but don't want to commit to an office full time yet. Is there a clever way to have a phone number with the local code that is automatically forwarded to head office (don't really want to have head office dialling code on advertising material if possible).

Indeed there is.

What's your current phone/telecoms setup?

Easy with VOIP, and with no ongoing costs. Buy a local number (see TTNC for example, many others offer the same), and just terminate the calls at your head office).

A couple of quid a month will sort it:

I use them for the same purpose. Faultless.
