Working with onshore and offshore teams, you'll work on a variety of challenging projects for a range of clients, across a range of industries.

What you'll learn

Here, it's not just about the languages you know. Of course we'll train you in technologies such as SAP, Oracle, Java/J2EE, C# and BEA WebLogic; give you the chance to get an ICTTech certification and get incredible insights into testing technologies (.NET, IBM Rational Toolset, SAP (ABAP). But more than that, we want you to understand the bigger picture. So you'll get to learn all about IT strategy, data centre technology, security and enterprise architecture. Plus, because of the size and scope of our business, not only will you get to work with big name providers like Microsoft, Oracle and SAP, but also emerging market innovators.
