About the employer

We burst onto the scene way back in 1999. In those days when we were all getting to grips with just what the internet could do we were known as Online IT Solutions. This was a pretty fancy name for an IT recruitment agency with just two people behind it. But we more than made up for it with our buckets of enthusiasm. Those were the days of figuring out our business and getting it in the best shape to give our clients what they really needed.
