A Bristol company that provides machinery for working at height has established a new flagship depot in the South West, creating 20 jobs.
Nationwide Platforms has relocated its Bristol depot from Ashton Gate to Avonmouth in a move the company said would help "innovate" the way it operates. More machines have been purchased to supplement the relocated fleet, including more electric and hybrid options.
Some 10 staff have already been hired to increase the size of the on-site call centre, while another 10 are being recruited to establish an engineering night shift by September. It will mean the total number of jobs at the depot will have increased by about a third since the move, Nationwide Platforms said.
