Helping you find a career in information technology
With a lot of what we do at work (and outside work) now existing on The Cloud, it seems the people working in IT are keeping everything afloat. Our whole world (from plane journeys to social media) relies on computing systems, and IT is the industry that keeps all this functioning.
Alongside other technology-based sectors, IT is one of the fastest expanding career areas as every part of society adopts more, and new types of technology. The drive forward is relentless, and a skills shortage in the industry means that organisations are crying out for those with digital skills.
The industry is growing faster than many others, with an expected growth of 1.62% each year (nearly twice as fast as the national average). With 40% of people in technology and IT-based roles working outside of the industry in areas such as retail, finance, the Public Sector and marketing, no two jobs will ever be exactly the same.
Having the right technical skills in areas like coding and IT systems can open up many opportunities.
