When asked why he joined NV, Savage said;

“As part of their core IT strategy, and to enable key digital transformations, todays Enterprise Clients look for partners that can deliver Enterprise Technology talent globally. Not many businesses can, but with Next Ventures, I very quickly recognised their pedigree in recruiting for SAP and Oracle, combined with specialist teams that focus on Business Applications, SAP, Data, Cloud & Infrastructure, Development and Integration, and felt NV can truly add the level of value needed by today’s companies that other recruitment businesses cannot.
Commercially NV has ambitious growth plans with the platform in place to meet these. They have an expanding contractor base currently working with more than 150 clients in key enterprise transformation programmes across 16 different countries. Unlike many others, NV are truly focused on expanding their operations globally and on track to meet these ambitions.
Internally NV has a training and development framework in place, with a clear employee journey fostering engagement and advancement at all levels. All this tells me there’s an opportunity to expand and develop the management team further, which personally gives me a real opportunity to help create something memorable and exciting”

NV Co-Founder Richard Lacey commented;

“Next Ventures SAP and Business Applications practices are the ‘crown jewels’ of our capability and when Nick became available our search for a very strong quality focused leader was over.
