Edinburgh-based Cathcart Associates is expanding into Manchester to meet the north of England demand for skilled tech staff.
The company hopes this will mean a 100% increase in turnover over the next three years and will result in a turnover of £4 million by 2020.
The expansion should mean that the number of employees will double in the same timeframe.
The company also runs free informal meet ups in Manchester called MancML organised alongside learning startup Octavia.ai.
Sam Wason, co-founder and director of Cathcart Associates, said: “The volume of tech success stories coming out of Manchester is impressive. Manchester’s technology sector is bursting with potential and we are excited to be part of the tech scene here and to support it as it competes with other tech hubs for talent and business.
“While there are other IT recruitment firms in the area, Cathcart Associates stand out for its quality of approach and service. We are an independent business, free from the constraints of a parent company, and our dedication is now feeding through to the results we are seeing in the business.”
The company’s graduate scheme has been set up to deliver a unique training programme that provides trainees with the highest possible standard of recruitment training.
