The move comes just a year after the company won the race to take over two huge contracts from Serco, which safeguarded 600 existing staff at the time.

The firm said the huge expansion was 'due to increased business from a number of Webhelp’s existing clients.'

Anton Manley, chief operating officer at Webhelp UK, said: “We took over the Sheffield site just over a year ago and since then we have been really impressed by the site, its location, Sheffield itself and especially the great pool of talented people who have come to work for Webhelp.

“Webhelp is totally committed to the future of our business in Sheffield.

"We are investing money in the site and with this recruitment Sheffield will become one of the biggest and most important sites Webhelp has in the UK.”

The new jobs are permanent positions and the firm is looking for people across customer service, sales, collections and e-commerce roles.
