Leading North East Digitech talent agency Ronald James Group are enjoying an exciting time of growth after moving to brand new 5500 sq ft, fully refurbished premises allowing the agency to build a state of the art TechHub for start up businesses in the region
The company has enjoyed an exciting start to 2019 with a growing headcount, development of an extensive client portfolio and a rapidly increasing pool of some of the top digital and tech talent in the region. Their recent office move brings additional space for the agency to grow their offering whilst attracting start up talent from across the North East to come together under one roof. The space will also be used for networking events hosted for tech and digital professionals.
CEO, James Blackwell explains the ambitious plans for growth: “Starting the business with a credit card and growing it as a bootstrap to where it is today has been a proud achievement, but it is only just the start. We have exciting plans to get to 2021 and hit £10 million, whilst we are also growing into the North West, and internationally into the US with an office in Boston. We’re obviously keen to grow our presence in the North East region too so our new HQ gives us the perfect opportunity to do so.
Ronald James’ latest recruits to the team include Sarah Woodhall, Senior Recruitment Consultant joining from NRG with extensive experience placing candidates in Digital and Sales roles. Roger Burn joins from Nigel Wright as Managing Consultant specialising in IT and Infrastructure. Kelsey Leonard is the latest addition to the team, joining to head up the Marketing department as the agency grow their presence in the North of England and beyond.
Plans for the rest of 2019 include targets of £1.5 million and further into 2020 with a target of over £2 million, increasing headcount to 20+ staff.
