    Red Maple


  • Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    We're an MSP with a strong focus on client experience and staff wellbeing.

    We're based on a farm between Newcastle and Hexham - don't worry through, you won't have to contend with farm animals for parking spaces! We have full fibre, fresh air and easy access to surrounding villages, pubs and sandwich shops in Corbridge, as well as Hadrian's Wall if you fancy a lunchtime walk.

    Depending on where you are, and if you need to come to the office, you will probably go the opposite way to rush hour traffic - making the commute that little bit easier when you're not working from home or client sites.

    We work with small companies to national brands, and pride ourselves on being helpful and getting the job done, with security being paramount for all. We're engineer led, and aim to ensure that any client issues are resolved on first contact.

    If you like having a work/life balance, love learning new technologies and most importantly believe in giving our clients a great experience then we'd love to hear from you.

    The number one goal of everyone in our team is to make our Clients secure and exceptionally happy. You will play an important role in making sure that happens.
