A SKIPTON finance technology firm has unveiled plans to create more than 100 new jobs.

Contis, part of the Solaris group, has revealed plans to increase its workforce by more than a third over the next six months, with the Skipton-headquartered firm planning to recruit 123 additional roles across the UK, Lithuania and India.

Contis employs 60 people at its headquarters in Belmont Wharf, Skipton, and most of the 40 of the new UK jobs will be created in Skipton.

The firm has also committed to increasing its HR-focused investment in current employees, which includes a £150,000 investment into a development programme that enables all current 210 employees to access an allowance of £750 each to spend on individual training courses, event attendance and mentoring to help further their careers.

Kate Laidlow, Head of People and Culture, said: “It’s vital that as the company continues to expand across geographies, we increase investment in our people to help grow and retain the fantastic talent we have here at Contis.”

Lee Johnstone, Managing Director at Contis, said: “Our people are essential to the success of Contis to date and will continue to be as we grow.”
