The new HQ will include 36,000sq ft of office space, with room for 350 employees alongside virtual reality capabilities for engineering.
It will include state of the art training facilities to allow an expansion of graduate and apprenticeship programmes, offering training and upskilling opportunities across a range of disciplines including engineering, design, finance, and commercial development.
The company, which already employees 700 staff having been founded in 1997, said recruitment for new positions is currently underway and will continue over the coming years.
