We have been providing IT consulting services to businesses internationally for many years. Our consultants are passionate about what they do, and this passion is one of the things that makes them excel. After speaking with several team members, we’ve chosen to explore IT consulting from two perspectives: for individuals considering a career as an IT Consultant and, in our next blog post, for companies seeking a digital partner. In an interview with our CEO, Simon Forshaw, he shares his own journey into IT consulting and explains how we foster a supportive and fulfilling environment for our consultants.
Variety of Work
As Simon explains in the interview, he can’t imagine being tied to just one thing—one company, one technology, or doing the same task repeatedly. This desire for variety is a common reason why many choose IT consulting. The broad scope of work allows consultants to build a diverse knowledge base. Each project presents unique challenges, and consultants often work in different industries, companies, and environments for several months at a time.
Exposure to Different Technologies
IT consulting also provides the opportunity to work with a range of technologies. This diversity benefits both clients and consultants. Clients gain from the collective expertise of our entire team, while consultants get to expand their skill sets.
Our culture encourages knowledge sharing among colleagues. Consultants are supported in learning new technologies, advancing in their careers, and applying their knowledge across different industries. Even when focused on a single industry, consultants can leverage their experiences to develop adaptable approaches for future challenges.
Collaboration with Talented Professionals
IT consulting creates a thriving environment where consultants work alongside highly skilled professionals. Companies often bring in external consultants to tackle complex problems, which means consultants are consistently exposed to innovative solutions and diverse experiences. The variety of backgrounds and expertise among colleagues creates a dynamic setting where knowledge exchange is a natural part of daily work, further enhancing skills and fostering professional growth.
All in all, IT consulting offers an unparalleled opportunity to grow, learn, and thrive while making a meaningful impact in diverse industries.
