Job Description

We have partnered with one of the UK's leading providers of IT contract services to provide a real opportunity for individuals to begin a career in IT.

  • If you are interested in embarking in a technical IT career?
  • If you are frustrated that no one will give you that first chance?
  • If you are friendly and have great customer service skills?
  • Looking to get out of a dead-end job and start a real career?

This could be the opportunity you have been looking for.

Utilising our training materials and our partner clients ongoing need for around 50 new contractors each month we can offer an opportunity that will lead to a genuine employment position after completing the initial training.

The position offers an income from £18k-£22k dependant on location working as a contractor or permanent staff to supply IT services for one of our partners many client contracts.

We can offer finance options for the training package enabling you to start and finish the training immediately and therefore move into the role as quickly as you can achieve the training goals set by our partner client. The training can be completed online meaning you can continue within your current role until you are ready and qualified to progress.

To demonstrate that we are serious about this offer, we have put in place a financial guarantee to ensure that if you are not accepted by our partner client after completing the training you will receive a full refund of the training costs paid.

The IT contract roles offered can be very diversified, from being helpdesk based to operating as a field engineer.

Candidates must have access to a Full UK Drivers licence and be prepared to work at locations up to 50 miles from home. (Most contracts will be within a 30 miles radius, and mileage allowances are paid outside of this).

The training package focuses on obtaining the industry recognised certifications required for most roles in IT and includes the costs of the CompTIA A examinations.

Once you have passed these you will attend a 1-week training and assessment at our partners Head Office location and transport and accommodation will be included within the training package (subject to a maximum of £300).

Upon completion of this 1-week training and assessment our partner client will then offer you a position to work on their contracts within your location.

Questions you may have: -

Why does our partner client have 50 opportunities opening each month?

The answer to this is that they are a victim of their own success. By providing their own clients with highly qualified contract workers who start working on a 6-9 month contract basis, many of these individuals will then end up being offered permanent positions within the company they are placed with.

Why have you formed this partnership?

Both ourselves and our client have the same ethos. That is to help individuals with no experience embark on a new career in IT. In this certification driven world it has become almost impossible for individuals to begin a new career without experience. Therefore, we provide certified individuals and our partner client gives these candidates their first IT role enabling them to gain the valuable experience they need to begin a long and rewarding career. In return, by employing entry level individuals our partner client can win more contracts by being competitive in their own field. Therefore, this is a real "win-win" scenario.

How quickly can I complete the training?

In order to reach the standard required by our partner it is a requirement that you pass both the CompTIA A Windows 70-680 certifications. On average this would require around 90-120 hours study and theoretically could be completed in just a few weeks.

Is the package expensive?

The training is designed to provide you with a real opportunity to embark on a career in IT. Therefore, it has been designed to give you everything you need to achieve this and remove any obstacles that may have otherwise been in the way. In relative terms and compared to the cost of a obtaining a degree which achieves the same objective it is exceptional value with monthly payments from around £40 per month based on our finance option.
