Adrian Rushmore, operations director at cap hpi, commented: “We continue to attract new talent to grow our data and insight teams in the UK and internationally.
“Our operation will have technology at the centre of all data activities, from collection and processing, through to delivery and the development of new applications.”
The latest appointments come some six months after CAP and HPI announced they were merging their operations to a joint head office in Leeds following CAP's acquisition by parent company Solera Holdings.
Rushmore added: “By centralising our operations in Leeds, we create an international hub that ensures our systems, coding, data collection processes, and valuation methodologies are consistent, scalable and repeatable for every country that cap hpi enters in the coming years.”
