A Newcastle-based IT firm which has exceeded its targets and
witnessed a year of high growth has opened a Leeds office following a
surge of new contracts outside the region.
Based in Newcastle’s bourgeoning creative quarter Ouseburn Valley, within its first year EastQuay IT has made its niche delivering greener solutions to the creative industries and has taken on four new staff after securing business in Yorkshire.
The firm, which has worked with some of the region’s largest advertising and design agencies and has helped many North East organisations cut energy costs by up to 80%, has seen a rise in new business after launching additional services including green computing, cloud services and website hosting.
It is also one of the only Adobe and Apple accredited IT firms in the North East that can support PCs, Apple Macs and tablets within a business environment.
Partners Ian Fraser and Giles Wright say the expansion is down to finding a niche market and serving that to the highest possible standards to gain business based on traditional word of mouth referrals.
Ian Fraser said: “It’s very encouraging that within just one year we have exceeded our expectations and targets in our first financial year.
“We are a friendly, local firm who can bolt on to any business as an expansion of their team. We are well known in the creative and digital sectors within the North East and are already starting to make ourselves known to this sector in other parts of the UK, which has led to our second office opening in Queens Square, Leeds.
“Our expansion is down to focusing on what we know best whilst still diverting into different service lines that help to reinforce our offering without diluting our core business of offering workable greener IT solutions. This has helped us gain recognition and credibility from our customers who have subsequently referred us on to their partners.”
EastQuay IT partner Giles Wright, a former canary Wharf analyst said: “As we are now one of the only firms in the region that specialise in working with PC and Mac systems, which creative agencies use day in and day out, this has helped us clear up this market and is something we are focussing on to help take us into different parts of the UK.”
EastQuay IT has also invested in a new brochure website, which incorporates a remote support service so the team can work on a client’s computer system from their office base.
As well as focussing on the creative sector EastQuay IT is also looking to expand its services into other mainstream industries such as engineering and industrial as its targets for the forthcoming year.
