Data firm eyes further growth with Newcastle expansion

After grown its revenue by 60 per cent in the last twelve months, the Scottish firm has settled on Newcastle for the location of its first English office.

The new office, which will be headed up by newly appointed regional development manager Michael McMeekin, aims to reach a wider audience, addressing the four specific sectors of transportation, public sector, food & drink and financial services.

Colin continued: “Whilst we have delivered our services across the UK we felt the skills, expertise and local knowledge through Michael McMeekin will be a fantastic asset now and in the future to continue our growth.”

Newly appointed regional development manager, Michael McMeekin, added: “Having worked with the team at Eyecademy for the last six months and discussions around helping them grow their business in England it was an easy and natural progression to join them.”

In addition to the launch of its new office, Eyecademy has plans to expand its team of data scientists, business intelligence and data analytics consultants over the next eighteen months to bolster its plans for further growth.
