Yorkshire Building Society to create 100 new jobs in Leeds and Bradford

Yorkshire Building Society, the UK’s second largest building society, has recently revealed plans to create no less than 100 new jobs in the Leeds and Bradford areas before the end of the year.

According to a media report, the move follows a very solid set of financial results for the first half of 2013, the group revealing pre-tax profit of £80.1m in the six months to 30 June 2013, compared with £82.8m for the same period a year ago.

The UK’s second largest building society said it had already taken on 100 new employees so far, and the 100 new roles will be split across its Yorkshire Drive office in Bradford and new Broad Gate office in Leeds.

Chris Pilling, Yorkshire Building Society’s chief executive, said: “Our continued financial strength has allowed us to begin the significant investment programme, which we announced earlier this year, to further improve the quality of service we deliver to our members. The new phase in our growth includes the planned opening in the coming months of a major new office in Leeds, which will see up to 1,000 colleagues based in the city centre, as well as investing £11m in our principal Bradford site and £5m invested in our offices in Cheltenham and Peterborough.”
