We’ve had a very busy few weeks in the Caja team, isn’t everything meant to quieten at Christmas?
As the year ends, we’d like to reflect our 2016 year at Caja.
The Caja team grew with two new faces joining the office: Charlotte Weber, our Office Manager, and Rachel Campbell, our Junior Office Administrator. Both great additions to the team.
In August, we moved to Keele University Science Park which has provided us with a great office space – do come and visit us, if you have not already done so. We also have a great meeting room which holds up to 10 people for a workshop – do contact us if you have need of a meeting space. Being at Keele, is also providing us with a great foundation to develop our Higher Education offering and develop research opportunities with the University.
Our Managing Director, Caroline Brown has been appointed to an SME panel to advise the government on how to assist small and medium-sized business in winning and delivering public sector contracts.
The second half of the year has seen us win a number of new contracts in the health sector: –
- Arden and Greater East Midlands commissioning support unit – Business Services – Product Development
- NHS Scotland – HR Shared Services for 6 NHS Boards
and new client wins with: –
- Central Government –Department of Communications and Local Government providing communication support
- Keele University – Research Funding Review
We have also seen contract extensions into 2017 with G4S and Kingston University.
In the last quarter, we have been collaborating with CC2i, a public-sector crowdfunding site which provides small and medium-sized businesses a platform to market their ideas. You can read our current pitch here.
One of our key successes this year has been winning ‘New Business Award’ at the FSB Greater Manchester and North Cheshire Business Awards on the 9th November.
So a great 2016 and we would like to thank all of our associates and partners for the part that they have played in making it all happen
We’d like to wish you a very merry Christmas and a happy and successful 2017.
