This demonstrates Pulsion’s expertise in Microsoft products and technology and allows the company to continue to engage in significant projects based on Microsoft technology, particularly within the NHS and private sectors.

This new opening follows on from an earlier decision to relocate the company’s headquarters to a larger site within Glasgow to house the growing Development and Product divisions.

Malcolm Shannon, Managing Director, Pulsion IT Services, comments,

“ Although Pulsion is headquartered in Glasgow, it makes sense for us to have an Edinburgh base. Many of our finance and public sector clients are based in the east coast and we see a large opportunity for further growth. There is no doubt that customers appreciate us having a local base. As we grow as a company we are keen to employ talented IT professionals from both sides of the country – the opening of an Edinburgh office makes this easier.

Our next step is to set up a London base to service the growing business we are doing in London and the South-East, and we are already well advanced with these plans. ”

The appointment comes at a time of growth for Pulsion Technology, which over the past twelve years has developed into one of Scotland’s leading IT companies and Microsoft Gold partners. Since the launch of the eSquiggles mobile working solution, Pulsion has gained a presence in additional markets including the Facilities Management and Surveying markets. The success of the product has spurred on a number of additional sales and technical appointments and has prompted the decision to relocate to larger premises

Commenting on his new role Malcolm says,

“ I’m delighted to have taken up this position within Pulsion, which comes at an exciting time for the company. We have a solid client base and with the growing success of the eSquiggles mobile working product and other key solutions we are set to have another successful year. The appointment of myself and a number of technical and sales staff means we’ll be relocating to larger modern premises in Glasgow soon, which reflects Pulsion’s plans for continued growth which I look forward to being a part of! ”
