The first wave of hundreds of new tech jobs have been launched on Tyneside with the opening of a new office in the North East.
US cyber security specialist Arctic Wolf has created 30 initial roles at its new base in Newcastle city centre, and it expects to attract several hundred workers to the base in the coming years as the firm expands. The company’s office on Grey Street has been officially opened by Clare Loveridge, Arctic Wolf’s vice president and general manager EMEA, who grew up in Newcastle but left the city to further her career.
Arctic Wolf’s opening of its new EMEA (Europe, the Middle East and Africa) headquarters in Newcastle follows rapid growth across the territory and is expected to help establish the North East as a new hub for leading technology firms.
