Thirty new jobs up for grabs at Nottingham software firm Ideagen

A Nottingham-based global software firm is creating 30 jobs at its Ruddington offices.

Ideagen is a UK-headquartered, global technology company that provides software and services to organisations within highly regulated industries such as banking and healthcare.

The firm, based in Ruddington Fields Business Park is now in the first phase of its ‘destination employer’ project, and is creating 30 new jobs locally.

CEO Ben Dorks said: “As we prepare to record our tenth successive year of growth it is crucial that we continue to invest in the business.

“One of our key strategic goals as a company is to become a ‘destination employer’ across the globe and these roles are absolutely crucial in helping us to achieve that."

The recruitment drive will see the creation of 14 software development roles, along with 10 internal sales, three customer success and three technical content roles.

Mr Dorks explained that becoming a 'destination employer' means they hope people would be drawn to working there as the company continues to grow.

He added: “Ideagen is evolving into one of the largest software companies operating in the governance, risk and compliance (GRC) space.

"As we secure more complex and technically challenging projects, it is imperative that we continue to invest in the business and in our people.”

Mr Dorks said the new staff would be joining Ideagen at a time when the company is set to double in size, both organically and through acquisition, over the next three years.

He said: "At Ideagen, people can grow, develop, have fun and in return for hard work, people are valued and are provided with new experiences, and challenges.

"We value people who want a challenge and are prepared to work with our global teams and work towards success."

Mr Dorks said 80 percent of their staff go on training courses every three months.

The recruitment drive is part of Ideagen’s global growth strategy as it looks to create 100 jobs across four Centres of Excellence in Nottingham, Glasgow, Kuala Lumpur and North Carolina.

Globally, the company now has more than 500 staff across its operations in the UK, Europe, US, SE Asia and UAE.

It’s Nottingham HQ is a 200 capacity facility which is set to become a Centre of Excellence for the company’s Research & Development, Sales, HR & People and Accounts functions.

Mr Dorks added: “By touching key operational functions within our Nottingham Centre of Excellence – from sales and development to technical and customer services – it will ensure we are well equipped, both in workforce and skillset, to successfully meet the demands of our customers across the ever-changing industries we operate in.”
