Outsource appoints new head of people and culture to help deliver on aggressive growth plans

  • Fast-growing Outsource Group has appointed one of the leading HR professionals in Northern Ireland’s tech sector to help it immediately recruit 30 new people and ultimately double its workforce.

    Susan Hill becomes the IT company’s head of people and culture following roles with Decision Time and Novosco, where she worked for 13 years. During her tenure with Novosco she played key roles in helping the workforce grow from 35 to 300 people.

    Last month Outsource Group announced a merger with ANSEC IA, one of the most highly regarded IT security consultancies in the UK & Ireland. The deal will see ANSEC IA become part of Outsource Group, creating a ‘powerhouse in security-focused IT managed services’.

    Speaking about the new appointment, Eamonn Bunting, Managing Director of Outsource Group said: “We have plans to employ a workforce of over 100 people by the end of this year and have aggressive future growth plans, locally and beyond. That means that we need at least 30 new people this year, with substantial additional recruitment thereafter in line with our long term business objectives.”

    Mr. Bunting added: “We also need to retain the fantastic talent that we already have in Outsource Group and with Susan’s experience and leadership we aim to be the number 1 employer of choice in our sector. We are delighted to appoint someone as highly regarded and experienced as Susan and very much look forward to welcoming her to the team.”
