One of the UK’s fastest-growing fintech businesses has relocated its Hull operations to the heart of the city’s digital community.
Dojo has expanded into the @TheDock Tech Campus in the Fruit Market, with the 190-strong team making the short move from Princes Dock Street.
The London-headquartered business provides rapid integrated card machines, a mobile app allowing businesses to track their transactions in real time and queue management systems for restaurants.
New offices will welcome customer service, commercial and IT teams.
Meg Darling, head of customer service at Dojo, said: “We’re really excited to have such a fantastic working environment, giving us more space in a brilliant location.

“We’re huge investors in our people and culture and moving to such a vibrant area of Hull makes it an even better place to work for our teams.
“The space is great, both internally and externally, and we’re delighted to be surrounded by like-minded businesses in this growing tech community.”
The company, which is headquartered in London and has further bases in Bristol and Belfast, is continuing to offer its staff flexible work arrangements, splitting their week between the new C4DI office and working from home.
Commercial support manager Ashleigh Sainsbury said: “The Fruit Market area is stunning. It’s great to see how much it has grown and developed and it’s the perfect place for us to continue to attract fresh talent.
“During lockdown, my team doubled in size and it’s great to be able to welcome them all into the office in such an exciting new working environment. Working together in person and collaborating with each other really enhances the customer experience, too.”
Dojo will occupy a large part of the fourth addition from developer Wykeland Group, taking much of the first floor and the entire second floor. The deal means it is fully let with the £3.75 million build having been speculative developed through the pandemic.
John Gouldthorp, asset manager at Wykeland, said: “Securing Dojo is a major coup for C4DI and @TheDock, as it brings a big national tech brand and almost 200 jobs to this thriving digital community.
“It underlines the positive impact of establishing a hub to bring the city’s leading digital businesses and specialists together. Just a few years after the opening of the first C4DI building, the tech community has grown into one of the UK’s most powerful digital clusters.
“Dojo’s decision also emphasises how attractive the Fruit Market is as a workplace. Companies are recognising that their staff and potential recruits want to work in a location that offers a vibrant lifestyle and opportunities to socialise during breaks and after work.”
Dojo follows Summit Media, Vertual and Saab UK as a high profile relocations or expansions at @TheDock.
