At 7,500 square feet, the new premises – still within Glasgow’s Skypark development - are around two-and-a-half times larger than the company’s previous headquarters.

Startline now has 85 employees and in the last few months has appointed its first Head of IT and Digital and first Head of Business Intelligence, alongside a range of other new roles. 

CEO Paul Burgess explained that the additional space should see Startline through its next phase of development.

He said: “The last 12 months have been transformative for the company. We are now working with a wider variety of dealer groups and online portals, giving us access to many more potential customers.

“Also, we have extended our product range beyond our core hire purchase product to add PCP and Finishline, which is designed to extend the reach of our flexible prime concept.

“Looking into 2019, we foresee further, similar growth and the new move gives us the space and the physical infrastructure to enter that phase of development.”
