FAST-expanding credit hire and credit repair services company Helphire Group has been forced to move its legal department to new offices closer to Bristol.

Resources director Mark Jackson said: 'We plan to double in size each year and we have outgrown our office space at both our other sites. We want to create new jobs and would like to keep our head office in the Bath area but we will need approximately 60,000sq ft with possible expansion to 100,000sq ft to cope with anticipated growth.'

The six-year-old company has call centres in Bath and Leeds with branches in Southampton, Brighton, Bridgend, Birmingham, Stansted, Hayes and Warrington and intends opened a further three in the next year.
