Revature starts UK operations

US Tech talent outfit Revature has launched operations in the United Kingdom.

The outfit said that it will us its talent development programme to train a diverse pool of qualified candidates in high-demand technology disciplines, providing a pathway to future-proof careers in technology and developing talent pipelines for organisations across the UK.

There were over two million UK job vacancies in tech last year despite a strong financial incentive to join the tech workforce.

Tech Nation reported that tech salaries are nearly 80 percent higher, on average, than salaries for non-tech jobs in the UK. A leading factor in these tech job vacancies is that nearly 12 million workers lacked the essential digital skills to fill those positions. Revature seeks to address this opportunity gap by training candidates and connecting them with in-demand jobs in tech that power the digital economy.

Revature Europe boss Tom Barron said: “We have a proven approach to building pathways for aspiring tech talent into high-paying jobs at top companies. Our track record gives us the confidence and motivation to expand our footprint and bring these potentially life-changing opportunities – those that provide better long-term financial security – to candidates across the UK.”

Next year, Revature UK plans to establish a non-graduate pathway to connect untapped talent that currently exists amongst A-level and T-level candidates with in-demand positions across the UK market.

Barron said: “We will provide our associates with strong salaries during placement, offer ongoing pastoral care and development support, and enable conversion to permanent positions with our client organisations within 12–18 months. We also will not impose any commitment bonds or early exit fees in the UK. Our success is dependent on our associates’ success, which in turn drives our clients’ satisfaction. It is a no-brainer for us to provide this enhanced offering.”

In the United States, Revature has trained and deployed over 10,000 candidates for clients across a range of industries including enterprise, consulting, government, and systems integrators. Revature is an authorised training partner for Salesforce, Pega, ServiceNow, OutSystems, UiPath, and Appian, and provides proprietary training in Java, data engineering, and many other tech stacks.
