Hundreds of New Jobs for Ruddington

A Ruddington based software company has announced its latest expansion will lead to the creation of around 400 more jobs here.

MHR, a specialist provider of Human Capital Management Solutions, has opened its newest office building this week as part of its ambitious growth plans. Company directors from MHR joined representatives from the building firm Stepnell and architects Simon Gee Designs for the ribbon cutting at Wellington House in Ruddington Fields Business Park. The environmentally-friendly building will house its 200-strong software teams and is also said to include state of the art data facilities designed to improve the firm’s carbon footprint. The current £10m building project will see the construction of two further offices and MHR’s workforce growing from 600 to 1,000 people by the end of 2018.

The company, established in 1984, develops software already used in processing payments to around 10 percent of the UK’s workforce!

Commenting on the new building, MHR Chairman and founder John Mills said: “The opening of Wellington House is a reflection of the continued success of MHR and our ambitious plans for the future. The company employs some of the best people locally who are passionate about delivering the best HR and payroll software and services to customers. Innovation is critical to our future success and we believe that our employees should have the best possible work environment to facilitate that process.”

MHR Chief Executive Officer, Anton Roe added: “This opening is a culmination of years of planning to fulfil MHR’s vision to lead the way in innovation, and we’ll be hiring highly skilled local people who can help us deliver this. It feels great to know that the people we’re hiring will be able to perform at their best in an environment they enjoy working in.”
