DATA WAREHOUSING CAREERS (Scroll down for job listings)
Devoted to data warehousing ourselves, (we use MS BI) I don’t know how any organization can run without a Business Intelligence framework in place, as managing big data and levering the clean findings are key to commercial success in today’s E-Led world.
We entered the BI recruitment sector in the mid 90’s, originally focused on SAS, Oracle Express, Business Objects, Redbrick and Gentia … Forest and Tress, moving with the times we progressed into ETL search to today being proactive in every discipline of MIS talent acquisition including SSAS, Qlikview, Cognos, BOBJ along with Open Source offerings, from SQL Developers to Solution Architects and Project Managers.
Over the past couple of years we have also delivered solid results when assisting Budgeting, Report Writing and Database related professionals with their career plans along with assisting clients find the best talent.
We are passionate about your sector because without BI we quite simply would not be in business today.

Thank you for visiting our site, should you be here because we invited you to meet us this week, we are reaching out as many companies are finding it more difficult to source skills, whilst highly specialized professionals often struggle to secure a suitable opportunity for themselves…I think that we are in a labour market at crossed purposes.
This situation is caused in part by the phenomenal increase in LinkedIn and Career site memberships over the past year which has overwhelmed recruitment houses and in-house HR departments…Our guess is that this situation will become more acute into the future.

We are crowd sourcing, quite a curve for us, it is a new and different way of working, we had a MS BI solution built to help us cope as PNET saw a 60% increase in members in 2011 alone, whilst the SA LinkedIn community is one of the fastest growing in the world.
These milestones have created the perception of a skills shortage, caused largely by the inability of HR People to stay ahead of the expediential growth in internet memberships.
