Middlesbrough-based pawnbroker Ramsdens is gearing up to open its first store in Kent next month. The firm has taken over the former Virgin Media branch next to JD Sports inside the Pentagon Centre, Chatham as part of its expansion into London and the South East. The branch will open in early December and will see four new jobs created, with applications currently being accepted for a Branch Assistant role. Virgin Media axed its branch in Chatham alongside 25 other locations last year after it decided that it was "not giving us a sustainable or appropriate return in terms of value."
Ramsdens - which has more than 150 stores across the UK - operates in pawnbroking, foreign currency exchange, the buying of precious metals, and buying and selling second-hand and new jewellery. The latest arrival comes just months after rival chain H&T Pawnbrokers opened its second branch nearby in the High Street. Those interested in the full-time Branch Assistant role can apply by sending an email to [email protected] or by visiting the website for further details. Comments are closed.
