Call centre specialist ResQ is to create 290 new jobs as it expands its city centre presence, taking over a second floor in the Hammonds of Hull building.
The outsourcing giant supports the likes of Vodafone and British Gas, and already employs 2,000 people. It has secured a £750,000 Levelling Up Fund grant through Hull City Council to part-finance a £2 million overhaul, which will create 520 new work spaces at the former department store as it gears up to handle new and existing work.
ResQ will split the remaining cost of the extensive renovation work with the local authority.
