Temping outfit Accenture has revealed it will expand its UK workforce with 3,000 new roles over the next three years.
The company thinks its clients will need more staff if they are recovering from the pandemic.
Half of the new roles will be based outside of London, expanding the company’s presence in Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle, Edinburgh, and Glasgow, and adding to its existing UK workforce of around 11,000 people.
The company said that the new roles are being driven by increased client demand for services in platforms, cloud engineering, cyber security, and data and intelligent operations.
Accenture UK and Ireland marketing manager, Simon Eaves, said the UK economy was rebounding swiftly following the pandemic and Accenture is seeing strong demand from clients seeking to capitalise on this growth opportunity.
“We are committed to growing our footprint across the UK which is why I am particularly excited about our plans across Scotland and northern England where we see some of the best technology talent in the country”, said Eaves.
