From 1 September, the new office will initially be home to 12 team members, including existing employees based in the Bournemouth area, with plans to scale quickly by early 2027. The company is actively recruiting as it responds to growing customer demand.

Car Finance 247's new home is within Victoria House in Westbourne, a landmark office building that has recently undergone a £5 million refurbishment. Formerly the headquarters of Liverpool Victoria, the 21,000 sq ft building offers modern workspace close to Bournemouth town centre and key transport links, providing a base to support Car Finance 247's significant future growth.

The move marks a major milestone for the business, which has operated from Manchester since its launch in 2006. While Car Finance 247 has over 500 employees at its HQ and a field-based sales team across the UK, Bournemouth will become its first permanent office outside the North West.

Bournemouth was chosen for its strong pool of financial services and sales talent. The office will focus on direct-to-consumer sales, supporting customers nationwide while working alongside the company's centralised operations in Manchester.

Louis Rix, Chief Operating Officer at Car Finance 247, said:

"Opening our first office outside Manchester is an important step for the business and reflects the scale of our ambitions."

"Bournemouth offers access to a strong talent pool and we already have colleagues based in the area. As the business continues to grow, it made sense to establish a permanent base that allows us to attract and develop more sales talent. We've recently enjoyed our strongest trading month to date and this new office gives us the capacity to support even more customers as we continue to grow."
