Blueocto, a successful web development company based in Sunderland, has gone from strength to strength, taking on new employees and clients despite the Covid-19 pandemic impacting almost every part of the economy.

Established 6 years ago Blueocto is now a thriving women-led technology business and this latest recruitment drive reflects the ongoing company growth, which is helping to boost local employment.

Challenging industry norms and adopting an out-of-the-box approach, Blueocto was recently featured in the Clutch top 100 design firms for SEO — an amazing achievement for a small, upcoming business and testament to the brand’s outstanding reputation.

Caroline Hagan, founder of Blueocto, said: “We see Blueocto as a square peg that doesn’t fit the round hole, but that isn’t a bad thing.

We like to do things differently around here, providing impactful website design and development solutions that help businesses of all shapes and sizes to stand out from the crowd and achieve their business objectives.
