    Dell EMC have always been at the forefront of the digital landscape. As technology continues to evolve so does the opportunity for Dell EMC and partners to set themselves apart as the go-to brand in the highly competitive IT services market. Today’s business leaders expect expert-backed solutions that get results, and Dell EMC are committed to the evolution of their business and strategy to ensure they continue to deliver this. This event is a fantastic opportunity for partners like ourselves to join them in achieving this goal.

  • Innovation Martlesham 2019 Careers Fair

    Innovation Martlesham 2019 Careers Fair

    It’s been a busy week here at IF Recruitment. Wednesday saw the Innovation Martlesham 2019 Careers Fair, a fantastic day for IT and business professionals in the local area to meet many of the dozens of companies based on the Adastral Park campus. As an active member of the Adastral campus community, we at IF jumped at the opportunity to get to know some of the amazingly talented individuals living and working in Suffolk.

    The event was a resounding success, with over a thousand people attending. We thoroughly enjoyed meeting everyone that stopped by our stand and not only are we looking forward to assisting the IT professionals we met, but we are also delighted to be helping the Students (who will be the professionals of tomorrow) with planning their future careers.

    It was refreshing to see that, no matter which stage of their professional journey, all were excited at the prospect of becoming part of the Adastral community and the ground breaking innovative work carried out here every day.

    It’s quite clear that the event was a huge success for everybody involved. We at IF started new relationships with dozens of amazing individuals, had the opportunity to get to know some of our neighbours better, and of course were reminded once again just how much of a privilege it is to be based in one of the most important locations in the UK technology industry. If the 2019 event was anything to go, the 2020 jobs@adastral will be even larger. We look forward to seeing you there!

    Chelsea Nunn, Cloud and Storage Associate Director

    I love to talk Cloud.  ( And I love to talk…)  Some might say a perfect combination for a Cloud and Storage Recruitment Consultant… But the best part of my job is listening to our clients and candidates discuss their passions for Cloud Technology.

    I’m super excited to attend another fantastic event at the ExCeL – The AWS Summit.  I’m heading down tomorrow ( 10th May 2018) to meet lots of new faces and hear about the advances in technology. Because lets face it, in the “Cloud World”, you need to keep up to speed!

    I’m really proud to support some the of AWS Summit’s sponsoring organisations with their recruitment requirements and can’t wait to see them show off their capabilities. This helps me understand their business even more so – so i’m not complaining!

    I’m very much looking forward to making some new connections and would welcome the opportunity to grab a coffee should you like to discuss recruitment, cloud, or anything else for that matter!

    Please feel free to get in touch –  drop me a message on LinkedIn or an email – Chelsea@ifrecruit.com  – I’d love to meet!
