Document storage centre in Spennymoor creates new jobs for North-East


A Northern-based document management and secure storage specialist will officially start business from their new facility in the North-East this week, creating up to 15 new jobs.

Magnum Services, which also has offices in Goole, East Yorkshire, acquired a building in Spennymoor, County Durham, earlier this year. The document storage giant has now completely revamped and renovated the building and combined with its facility in East Yorkshire, the company has created the space to store three quarters of a million boxes – or enough sheets of A4 paper to stretch to the moon and back.

Justin Welton, managing director of Magnum Services, said: “Our new North East facility has increased our capacity by 50 per cent and allows us to get closer to our customers. We have always had strong links with the North East and the new warehouse means we now have a physical presence in the area. It’s also great to be able restore a building and create new jobs at the same time.

“The new facility obviously represents a considerable investment for Magnum Services and from our previous experience at Goole we’ve been able to ensure we’ve got the right security systems in place to keep our client’s documents protected."

Magnum currently provides document management solutions and associated services to over 1000 clients UK-wide and both manages and distributes large quantities of stored records physically and electronically.

Magnum works with a wide range of organisations and specialist areas include financial, legal, healthcare and personnel. With demand for the company’s services at an all time high, the extra storage space was fast becoming a necessity.

“Our new facility in Spennymoor will be used predominantly for hard storage, creating new capacity in the area, as well as generating up to fifteen new jobs locally” added Mr Welton.
