“St James’ Tower is located in the heart of Manchester’s business district and surrounded by some incredible amenities – it is a perfect location for Pimberly to attract world-class talent and continue their surge across the city.
Pimberly streamlines all aspects of product data management for eCommerce businesses, helping manufacturers retailers, and distributors boost productivity, speed time to market and reach new markets to increase sales.
On the back of rapid growth and expansion in the UK and into the US, Pimberly will now operate across two floors and is planning an intensive recruitment drive across marketing, sales, and software development.
Martin Balaam, CEO And Founder, said: “We want to give our employees the best possible office experience, and extending to floor 8 in St James’ Tower will enable us to enhance our workspace. We’re very excited about this next phase of growth and even more excited to continue working with some of Manchester’s top talent to achieve that.”
