Version 1 Celebrates 100th Employee in Belfast

Simon Phillips joined Version 1 this week as a Solution Architect. As the 100th Employee in Belfast, Simon represents a key milestone for the organisation's Northern Ireland Headquarters.

Version 1 was delighted to welcome our 100th employee to our Northern Ireland Headquarters in Belfast this week. Simon Phillips, a Solution Architect, joined our Belfast team in Cromac Place, and he is looking forward to getting started with his new role: “This new role is a great opportunity which will allow me to get involved in new projects, and to gain experience in new technologies.”

Going from strength-to-strength in Northern Ireland, Version 1 has enjoyed continued success in the region. From being shortlisted in the IT Company or Team of the Year category of the Belfast Telegraph Business Awards and winning significant contracts to support Northern Ireland Government, this growth signals Version 1’s commitment to continued commitment to supporting our NI based customers.

Lorna McAdoo, Head of Operations at Version 1 in Northern Ireland, was delighted to welcome Simon to the team. “Having begun operations here in Belfast in 2012 with a headcount of just four people, it has been fantastic to witness the continual growth of the Northern Ireland team to 100 highly engaged employees today,” she stated.

Reaching this milestone represents our ongoing commitment to our clients and community, the availability of IT Talent in the region and our ambition to one of the most successful IT companies in Northern Ireland.

Version 1 Northern Ireland provides IT consulting and managed services to over 20 local and international customers and increased their revenues by 30% year-on-year to £8.5M in 2018.
