The expansion will ensure that extra capacity is created for current client growth as well as new client wins.

Neil Barber, managing director of Interact North West, said: “Our staff and clients are at the forefront of celebrations as they are the reason for our success. Without them Interact would not be celebrating 10 years and set for continued growth.

“We’re proud to be bringing 100 new jobs to the community. Since setting up the business in 2011 we have worked hard as a team to develop a leading CX business, delivering positive interactions to customers each and every day.”

The celebrations were made even more special, by the appearance of Wigan Warriors Rugby legend Sam Powell at the contact centre.
