Capquest has revealed plans to create up to 100 jobs in Farnborough over the next year.

The new recruitment drive at the financial group's Templer Avenue site will bring the total number of employees in the Hampshire town to more than 300.

The announcement comes after the company was acquired by FTSE-listed Arrow Global in November last year.

Arrow Global chief operating officer Helen Ashton said: "Capquest relocated to Farnborough in February 2014 and has already recruited a significant number of people from the local area. This announcement reaffirms our commitment and long-term plans for the site.

"We're looking for friendly and dedicated individuals who will relish the opportunity. Our customers often have very sensitive financial issues and need help understanding and addressing them."

Councillor Seán Woodward, executive member for economy, transport & environment at Hampshire County Council, said: "I am delighted to hear of Capquest’s plans to expand. It is among good company in Hampshire as there is a strong cluster of major financial services HQ’s based here, including those of Aviva, Zurich, the AA and Old Mutual Wealth, who employ highly-skilled professionals in this sector.”
