Windscreen repair firm creates jobs in office move

A windscreen repair and replacement firm is creating 50 jobs in a head office expansion.

Allscreens Nationwide has opened a new Leicester base.

Bosses say the site provides space to launch ESG, research, customer and network liaison departments.

They add an existing repair, replacement and recalibration centre, in nearby Birstall, will close, with staff transferring to the firm’s new 28,000sq ft headquarters off Thurmaston Lane.

Daniel Sole, Allscreens Nationwide director, said: “These are exciting times, and we are especially delighted our new head office means we are creating new jobs in Leicester, a city that has been our home for 32 years.

“The company has strong growth ambitions for 2025, and this move forms part of our plan to consolidate our operations in Leicester and bring our workforce under one roof.”

The firm welcomed Andrew Edwards, Royal Bank of Scotland – East Midlands’ relationship director for commercial banking, to help open the head office, following the bank’s support for the business to buy the site.
