Conveyancing firm creates 160 jobs with office launch

Leeds-based Enact Conveyancing has launched an office at The Maltings in Hull while announcing 160 vacancies.

Established in 2000, Enact Conveyancing handles one in four remortgage conveyancing transactions and since launching it has processed more than 1.2 million transactions.

To accommodate its growth, the company has expanded its operations from West to East Yorkshire, choosing Hull as the location for its second office.

Ben Carroll, managing director at Enact, said: “The city is buoyant following its year as the UK City of Culture and we wanted to help bring business, investment and new opportunities to Hull, as well as tap into the talent here to establish our new team.”

The company employs more than 530 people at its head office in Leeds and has begun to recruit 160 staff members to its Hull team, with 29 employees already recruited.

Carroll added: “We pride ourselves on delivering a professional and personalised service. In order to continue to deliver this, we needed to expand the business and take on more staff as our popularity amongst mortgage lenders and consumers continues to grow.”

The new team will be based in a 10,000 sq ft office at Anchor House in Silvester Street, which form part of the Maltings office complex, the former home of the Hull Brewery company.
