SharePoint User Group UK

Hi all,

I'm an Australian-based SharePoint consultant with a UK passport who is keen to return to the UK (despite the weather).

The market seems to be rather sluggish at the moment, and my network of SharePoint contacts in the UK is fairly non-existent, so I would love to hear of any recruitment agencies you have used in the past that know what's what in the SharePoint scene. Most of the agencies I've contacted so far don't really give the impression that SharePoint is a system they specialize in...

Anyway, would greatly appreciate any information about preferred agencies/recruiters.

Thanks!
Scott

Hi Scott,

We have been using Cognitive group of late and found them to be knowledgable about the SharePoint sector.

They are active in the social media arena too, so tweet to @SharePoint_Kris or @SharePointHelen for more info.

Cheers

Paul.

Hi Scott,

What part of the UK are you looking to move to? It is well worth getting in contact with SUGUK organisers in relevant regions, as they may be aware of organisations seeking SharePoint skills. Many organisations and partners don't like using agencies but are still keen to recruit good people.

Hi Peter,

I'm flexible about my location in the UK with London being my main area of preference.

I'm fairly new to the forums - do you have any tips for getting in touch with the relevant people? Much appreciated for your help either way!

Thanks Paul, appreciate the info!

Hi Scott,

There are contact addresses for various regions on the home page. Alternatively post a message within one of the forums specific to the regions you are interested in.

Focus your message on SharePoint roles, rather than agencies. You may find you get some good responses, rather than being swamped with agencies.
