Berghaus owner Pentland Brands is looking to recruit up to 100 new jobs across a wide range of roles from product innovation and marketing to sales and finance at its offices in Nottingham.

The recruitment drive follows the move of the group’s Active brands – Canterbury and Mitre – to its East Midlands headquarters, which have served as the home of its swimwear brand Speedo since it was acquired in 1990.

In November last year, Pentland said it was transferring its operations in Stockport and Wakefield to its existing facilities in Nottingham and Sunderland to streamline its structure following a corporate reorganisation.

Sean Hastings, Global Marketing Director for Pentland Brands said: “We know there’s great talent across the region, so it’s an ideal time to grow our multi-brand team here at our East Midlands HQ.”

“These developments will help us to better manage our brands and opens up a broader range of career opportunities for our teams to work across multiple brands and projects. To do this we’re launching academies that will help our people develop these specialist skills.”

Pentland’s Active division includes Speedo, Canterbury, Berghaus and Mitre, while Ted Baker, Ellesse, Boxfresh, Kickers, KangaROOS and Red or Dead are part of the group’s Footwear business.
