A tech business based at Wynyard Business Park is planning for national growth after a string of new appointments.

North East tech business, ServAce, has increased its headcount by 50 per cent with the appointment of seven new employees within the last six months, bringing its total headcount from 12 to 19.

Based in Tees Valley, the UK market leader for training and event booking management launched in 2006 and since then has supported several national blue-chip companies to manage thousands of online and residential training courses, predominately apprenticeships.

The expansion comes as a result of increased demand in the market and investments include a new mobile app for apprentices , an online automated payment system, and more  integration of AIinto the booking system.

The seven new recruits include one national account manager, two Senior QA Automation engineers, a junior accounts manager, an account assistant and two business administration apprenticeships.

New national account manager Greg Smith will lead accounts for ServAce’s largest clients and head up the businesses safeguarding, an increasingly important element alongside the increase in managed apprenticeship training. He previously worked with international brands including Just Eat and npower.

Louise White, co-owner of ServAce, said: “Over the last year, we have seen a real demand for our services, which is down to an increase in training requirements in the market, but is also a testament to the relationships we hold with training organisers in some of the UK’s biggest businesses .

“It’s an exciting time for us as we have also welcomed seven new staff members who have strengthened our offering and are playing a key part in us growing our business across the country.”
