Following our decade of success, we are now kick-starting an ambitious roadmap of product innovation; an ideal combination of the start-up excitement with the financial security of a successful vendor.

As a result, the company is now building a software development centre of excellence with a proactive approach in skills investment and the career development of its team members.

Progressive, inclusive, innovative, and a market leader we seek loyalty and commitment and offer in return growth possibilities, exciting work and the once-in–a-lifetime opportunity to be part of an industry changing project that will make headlines.
