NEWS Computacenter has announced plans to create more than 600 jobs and invest in company infrastructure. The move comes as the company reported a 42 per cent rise in pre-tax profits for the last six months. The company said the rise in profits is due to a number of exceptional business coups which are not expected to be repeated, referring to contracts gained from the UK Post Office and the Automobile Association. According to a company spokesman, the new jobs will be created to accommodate expected new business over the next six months in France and Germany, and to generate new business from existing customers in Europe and the UK. "We have already announced a new logistics facility in Hatfield, which we expect to be operational at the end of next year. New offices in London and France have also been slated. We are also going to form a new division, which will concentrate on developing business in ecommerce and Internet," he said.
