Comex 2000, an outsource telecoms provider, has partnered with Virgin Media O2 to improve regional broadband coverage in Scotland.
Comex 2000 has been a Virgin Media O2 partner since 2008, operating strategic fiber networks throughout England.
The expansion into Scotland builds on the company’s success in the West Midlands, demonstrating its commitment to connectivity, innovation, and long-term client relationships.
The partnership will also generate 300 new jobs over the next two years, beginning with a recruitment drive for 30 positions.
Angela Constance, MSP for Almond Valley, toured Comex 2000’s newly established Livingston headquarters and spoke with employees.
Constance expressed her enthusiasm, “It was good to meet the staff and visit the site at Houston Industrial Estate, I very much welcome Comex 2000’s expansion into Scotland, based here in West Lothian. The growth of the company will bring job opportunities and offer an exciting career upgrading and maintaining networks for Scotland’s digital future.”
Gavin Laird, director of Scotland at Comex 2000, said “Comex 2000’s mission is to bolster Virgin Media O2’s network over the next five to 10 years, ensuring Scotland’s connectivity is on par with the UK and Europe.”
“We are actively recruiting roles to deliver these essential services and upgrades, offering an array of rewarding career opportunities and welcoming anyone that’s keen to contribute to Scotland’s digital future,” Laird added.
