Zuto, leading car finance marketplace is bucking the trend and seeing strong growth despite COVID-19

UK-based car finance marketplace Zuto has set its sights on growing its team by 20%, creating a number of new roles during challenging times.

A buoyant car buying market post lockdown has created a need for over 50 new roles which Zuto are looking to fill by the end of the year. Zuto currently employs over 250 people across its Macclesfield and Manchester offices and have recently opened a new office in Manchester city centre to welcome the growing team. This next recruitment drive will focus on expanding numerous areas of the business through Customer Experience, Tech, product, analytics, and support teams.

Following on from securing £7 million investment last year, Zuto has achieved year on year growth, despite challenges faced during the global pandemic. Zuto has since celebrated record-breaking achievements post lockdown and their plans are now focussed on fuelling additional growth and transforming the car finance experience with simplicity and integrity.

Aimee Picken, COO, Zuto said:

It fills me with pride that over the last few months we’ve been able to help people get into new cars when they needed them, including key workers in the most challenging times in lockdown. Working closely with our partners and lenders enabled us to provide a safe car buying experience, through contactless deliveries, and allowed us to navigate the pandemic well.

The used car market is well-positioned to grow, helped in part by customers seeking an alternative to public transport, and our latest recruitment drive will enable us to keep up with demand and provide the best possible experience for our customers.

Being a digital-led business, we find ourselves in a strong position and coupled with our exciting growth plans, its enabling Zuto to really move forward at pace. We are delighted to be able to add to our already brilliant team and support job creation in the North West.
