LV= has unveiled plans to expand its Ipswich operation.

The insurer, which employs around 130 people in Ipswich, said that following a record year of growth it is expanding its claims division and is looking to add 50 new staff.

LV='s office in Ipswich handles car insurance queries within the companies’ general insurance business.

LV= general insurance operations director, Peter Horton, said: “LV= is going through a period of significant growth so it’s a very exciting time to join us.

"With many other financial companies in the Ipswich area making cut-backs, we are actually expanding so this not only means that there is the opportunity to join us but also lots of great career prospects."
