Default Seeking senior IT people in Calgary

It's been a while since I've been here ... yes, life can be good for Brit immigrants in Canada with IT skills! Two vehicles, two homes, all the rest, etc, etc, etc, whatever, yadda yadda yadda ... you work at it in Canada, you get it, but sometimes it takes time.

Anyhoo, I'm now Managing Consultant for a Canadian & US IT Consultancy who are expanding into western Canada.

If you have demonstrable consultancy skills and you're experienced & certfied in MS & major vendors, please PM me.

If you feel offended by this post, mcuh apologies ... whatever ... go ahead and post on Monster & Workopolis, I'm sure you'll get a job sooner or later.

Live long & prosper!

That's excellent.... good to know that things are going well for you. Looks like your move to Calgary was well timed..... look at the housing price increases!

The house price increases are a pain in the butt ... it's made Calgary more expensive than Toronto ... so it's difficult to persuade people to move east!

Nope, I'm not back ... I just thought about all those threads about how hard it was to get IT jobs in Calgary ... I'm setting up a team, so I thought why not give it a go ...

Still alive despite a season of coaching lacrosse ... might as well have been running around with a target stuck on my shirt.

Life has been busy ... Calgary is booming!!

Should also have qualified that we're looking for people with hands on deployment experience in a large enterprise environment ... I know there are companies out there looking for developers, but not mine right now ...
