Carfinance247 has acquired an additional 10,500 sq ft. of office space at Albion Mill in Ancoats, Manchester, to house the company’s growing workforce.

It follows the appointment of an additional 60 employees in the last quarter, taking the total number of people to more than 200.  Recruitment has been across all departments within the organisation including senior roles, with the most recent acquisitions being focused in the sales, compliance and technology departments.

Carfinance247 has reported an increase in turnover by 280% this year. Dealers use the company to secure car finance online, ahead of sourcing a car at the dealership.

The Ancoats property is let by Artisan, and Carfinance247 currently leases a total of 15,000 sq. ft. in the building.

Reg Rix, Carfinance247 managing director, said: “Employing an ambitious and dedicated team is paramount to our continued success and the remarkable year we’ve had is down to the people we have working for us.

“We were also delighted to have been recognised as one of the Sunday Times Top 100 Companies to work for earlier this year.

“Of course we want to attract the best talent so we’ve invested in an additional modern office space with the latest facilities as a base for our expanding team.”
