Aviation software specialist Keyzo has almost doubled its team since opening new offices in Hull.
The IT provider expanded to The Deep Business Centre in April, and revealed bold plans to increase the size of its 30-strong staff force.
In the last seven months, Keyzo has continued its impressive growth, and with more jobs now up for grabs at the company, it hopes to pass the 50-employee mark in the near future.
Shane Spencer, managing director at Keyzo, said: “The move to Hull has been great for the business and due to continued success we’re recruiting again as we’ve created some brand new roles.
“We’re looking for talented, committed people to join our teams supporting new contracts and to help with our plans for growth over the next few years.”
Keyzo was founded by Mr Spencer in 2009 to provide next-generation software for a range of business sectors.
Since its inception, it has become a leader in supplying human resources and health and safety software solutions.
The company moved into the aviation industry with the acquisition in 2014 of Bytron Aviation, where Mr Spencer had previously spent more than three years as a software engineer.

Keyzo announced its expansion to The Deep in April as it began a drive to add to its workforce of 30 as part of the development of skybook.
Mr Spencer said: “The response to our recruitment campaign was so positive that we took the decision to expand even further across the business.
“The new staff have been fully trained up at our head office over the last three months and are doing a fantastic job.
“The new recruits are a mix of graduates who have come straight from university and others are experienced professionals.”
Now in its 35th year, Bytron has gone from strength to strength with its flagship award winning software, skybook – a fully-integrated flight dispatch, crew briefing and electronic flight bag system – serving industry heavyweights including Fly Dubai, Virgin and Boeing.
Meanwhile Keyzo has also developed its HR and health and safety software range including Induct and Train, Read and Sign and Staff Portal for clients including the NHS, Scottish Power, ABP, Cemex and Novartis.

Simon Clayton, the company’s technical director, said: “We are up to more than 40 staff overall and we now have more roles available in Hull and Kirmington with immediate effect.
“We’re looking for QA software testers and IT support engineers and in the coming months could double the size of our team compared with April.
“With the Hull office now open it will be easier for us to expand because of the nature and the location of The Deep Business Centre and the availability in the local area of the skills we need.
“The move has gone very well and the staff at The Deep have been excellent, supporting us every step of the way.”
