Solutions doubles size of apprenticeship programme

Solutions for Accounting apprentices

Here at Solutions we are proud to announce our success. We have doubled the number of apprentices having taken on 8 new members of staff.

This has brought our total number of apprentices from 7 to 14. Increasing our overall staff headcount by 11 in the past 12 months making us a proud team of 45.

We are proud of our growing team and we have come a long way from one member of staff when Iain Barker founded Solutions for Accounting in 1998.

Sage and Swiftpage

Due to our growing team and recruitment of talented staff we are now one of the UK’s leading Sage and Swiftpage business partners, with several strategically-located regional offices across the UK.

In 2015 Solutions for Accounting merged with Derby-based BluebirdCRM whose aim was to help small and medium enterprises grow by improving their sales and marketing capabilities.

Since the merger we have been able to expand our portfolio by adding Salesforce, the world’s leading CRM provider, to our range of services.

Salesforce is a customer relationship management solution that is designed to bring your company and clients closer together. This integrated CRM platform provides all your departments with a single shared view of your customers and gives you the tools that allow you to drive revenue and empower your teams

Our success has been built on the back of apprenticeships and the team members we have recruited via this route, so were absolutely delighted to have brought eight new apprenticeships into the business in recent months. We have an active apprenticeship programme with an annual intake, and many of our key members of staff started with us as apprentices and have worked their way up the business into more senior roles. Our latest intake of apprenticeships will enable us to lay the foundations for our next period of growth by creating these roles, which will enable us to provide even more high quality, value adding services with excellent customer care.
