A financial services company will be recruiting staff for new offices in Brighton and Hove.

Broker firm Edward Jones Ltd is holding a recruitment open house event next week.

Allan Anderson, principal of Edward Jones in the UK, said: "We already have 102 offices open in the UK but see Brighton as an area for further growth.

"At Edward Jones we are unique in having investment representatives, a combination of a stockbroker and independent financial adviser.

"We also operate on the principle of a one-broker office."

People attending the open day will hear about the training programme the company offers, which includes a secondment to the US.

After training the representative will be qualified to sell shares, bonds and other financial products.

The open day is being held at 55 Boundary Road, Hove, on Tuesday, between 5pm and 7pm.

The company said it had not set any limits to the number of staff it would recruit.
