Global pioneering health and care technology firm Tunstall Healthcare has officially opened its new hub in St Peter’s Square, Manchester today with the Right Worshipful Lord Mayor of Manchester, Donna Ludford in attendance.
The Lord Mayor joined Tunstall’s senior team, including Tunstall Group CEO Emil Peters, and UK and Ireland Managing Director Gavin Bashar, to open the new office hub today and welcome the firm to one of the UK’s most prominent Northern cities.
Tunstall, which is celebrating its 65th year, is currently recruiting for a range of hybrid working positions that will be based from the new hub in Manchester. Quality and testing, software development and business analysis roles are available to complement the existing tech teams based in Yorkshire, Sweden, Germany and Spain.
As well as mid-senior tech roles, there will be opportunities for graduates and apprentices to join the firm as part of Tunstall’s drive to mentor and train the very best talent in tech, in addition to positions that will offer support to those who wish to retrain or who have been out of work.
Emil Peters, Tunstall Group CEO at Tunstall, said: “This is undoubtedly a huge and exciting milestone for Tunstall as we open our latest UK office space, in the renowned business and technology hub of Manchester. Our new base is the perfect location to serve our customers across the country and in the north west, as well as attracting new talent to the Tunstall brand.
“A career at Tunstall gives candidates the opportunity to make a real difference in the health and care sector by realising the potential of technology to empower people to have more choice over how they live their lives. Our Manchester base will help us to attract some of the brightest talent in the sector to help us drive our exciting technology roadmap forward, and I’m looking forward to welcoming new colleagues to the business.”
Established in 1957, Tunstall has grown substantially and evolved from an equipment provider to a software solution and technology company that provides telecare and telehealth managed services. In this time, it has almost doubled the number of users supported by its systems, while increasing its geographic footprint across Europe.
Gavin Bashar, MD of Tunstall UK, also comments: “This new office space forms part of our strategy for growth, driving development of the pioneering Tunstall business as we expand. We are committed to our goals to help our customers meet the needs of their local populations, and this new office will help us achieve just that as we build upon our UK team.”
Gary Steen, Chief Operating Officer at Tunstall UK, adds: “At Tunstall, we put our people first and invest in their professional development. By expanding our base across the North we will be able to continue our success as a business while forging ahead as the market leader in our sector.
“New technology solutions are vital if we are to support our ageing population effectively. Innovation and development in the health and care sector will allow us to continue moving towards a proactive and preventative model of care provision which improves the quality of people’s lives and enables valuable resource to be targeted where and when they are needed most.”
