Events management company 360 Creative Event Services is looking to recruit new staff and grow the business after securing a seven-figure finance package from Santander Corporate Banking.

The Warwickshire-based company said it would be actively seeking new opportunities after the funding left it well-placed to secure new contracts, particularly for the Olympic Games. The business also moved its full banking facilities to Santander following the deal.

The firm currently provides services to more than 1,000 events annually, including sporting events such as the Grand National, Wimbledon and the F1 British Grand Prix, and conferences and seminars for blue-chip clients such as BT and Renault. Other major customers include Jaguar, Madame Tussauds and the London Marathon.

Owners David Walley and David Harding bought the company out of administration in 2010 and have since branched out into themed attractions to extend the otherwise seasonal nature of the business. This includes the design and build of features at theme parks such as the Dragon Tower at Warwick Castle and Johnny Depp’s Pirates of the Caribbean Set at Madame Tussauds.
