Bet365 has confirmed that they have signed a new five-year lease on a city-center building in Manchester, U.K. That is expected to help the company expand its operating capacity and comes following the launch of their DevOPs department in November, 2019.

Explained Steven Briggs, head of the DevOPs department, “We want to give operations the tooling, dashboards, and automation needed to increase the value it offers the business.” He added that the department would focus on building “a view of how all parts of the system work together and progress engineering principles that make monitoring, reporting and self-diagnostics/healing more achievable.”

The new office space encompasses 25,000 square feet and is located in the heart of Manchester. The offices will be located in the Core building, which is a newly renovated and modernized building in the “historic office core” area of the city.

Bet365 first established itself in Manchester in 2018 in the Spring Gardens area. They have greatly enlarged their tech support unit, which is operated by a subsidiary, Hillside Technology.
