Burnley business grows workforce as industry veteran joins team

Steven Emery said he was ‘thrilled’ to join the award-winning firm, working alongside founder and managing director Dave Walker.

He brings more than 20 years’ experience to the operation, managing customer-focused projects in a variety of industries, including shipping, finance, legal and construction.

Steven said: “I was one of the Covid work casualties, and lost my job earlier this year. However, it’s surprising and very positive to see that there are companies like +24 that are

expanding and creating new roles.

“I’ll be managing existing accounts, but there are also exciting new projects that will need managing.”

Dave said that he was delighted to bring Steven in as a new project manager, and is confident that there will be more new roles available in the near future as the tech firm strongly rebounds from the challenges of Covid.

“Obviously, every business has been affected by the pandemic, but we have worked hard to meet the challenges of the past months both with new business wins and

welcoming new team members.

“Bringing Steven on board was a no brainer – he brings to the business a wealth of experience, that we can use to deliver more award-winning campaigns to our pleased customers.”

This newly created role is the first in a string of such posts for the business as it enjoys its 10 anniversary year.

Steven added: “I have experience managing, delivering and implementing software solutions within many client environments. This is an exciting opportunity to develop and share my wide and varied project experience as I enjoy managing projects, engaging with clients and relationships.

“I enjoy the challenge of picking up projects from the beginning and seeing them through to the end while working alongside colleagues and clients throughout the full system development process."
