The American web company GoDaddy has announced plans to create 110 new jobs when it relocates its offices in Nottingham. The business is moving its Nottingham operations from the city centre to the Beeston Business park, and in the process will create 110 new jobs to bring the total number of staff up to 300. It is anticipated that the new jobs will be added over a period of about six months. GoDaddy has its headquarters in Arizona, and employs around 9,000 staff globally to manage web domains.
