Why Contract For Ergo

Why Contract For Ergo

Whether experienced or just starting out, contracting is a great way to maximise your earnings and gain experience with a variety of projects that will enhance your career and value to clients. Ergo has pioneered IT services in Ireland for over 25 years, consistently delivering business value with the latest technology.  This puts us in pole position to provide our contractors with a key component, choice.  Whether it is an internal Ergo project, a client site, or a public sector contract we have multiple opportunities for you to consider. At its core, contractors choose Ergo for our care and attention.  We are open, honest and this is borne out by the long-term relationships we build.

A key element as to why you should look to Ergo as a contractor is our ability to provide ongoing opportunities beyond your first contract with us. 85% of our contractors get their existing contract renewed or move to another project with us.

At least 70% of our contractors have been with us for more than 5 years.  This is the result of a proactive approach that begins weeks before the contract end date.  We can give you options in advance and we make the transition to subsequent contracts as seamless as possible.

The outlook for the contracting market is excellent. As the jobs market recovers, the number of new roles we are seeing exceed pre-pandemic levels and it looks like this trend is set to continue. If you are considering a move into contracting or are a seasoned contractor looking for a new challenge, the team at Ergo would love to talk to you.

If you are new to contracting here is an excellent blog by my colleague Wes on the ins and outs of starting your contracting career. If you would like to discuss in more detail, please contact me directly or for additional information we have a dedicated site for contractors here.
