For us, ICT is all about possibilities and it’s about reaching higher, every time. Allowing us to be smarter, fairer, faster and more productive. There’s so much talent and data passing through Newcastle and we have the knowledge, skills, and resources to harness it.

We have an exciting opportunity for talented technologically minded individuals who are looking to progress their career in ICT.
