Softcat heads to Newcastle

Softcat has a brand spanking new office in Newcastle and is looking for staff to fill it.

The reseller is getting its ninth UK office ready and believes that there is a “large opportunity for growth and recruitment” between its existing bases in Leeds and Glasgow.

Softcat opened its eighth UK office in Birmingham in 2019, and has a Marlow HQ, and offices in London, Leeds, Glasgow, Bristol, Manchester and on the South Coast, as well as Dublin.

The Newcastle outpost will be headed up by the newly appointed regional lead for Newcastle Sebastian Leonhardsen.

Softcat north eastern region boss Ashley Bilham said: “By growing our regional presence, we can not only better service our current customers but also increase our footprint nationally. We have strong coverage across the UK already however, there is a large opportunity for growth and recruitment between our Leeds and Glasgow offices.”
