Associated British Ports (ABP) has announced it will establish a new ‘IT hub’ at the Port of Cardiff to provide Information Technology services for its business and customers. The significant investment by ABP is expected to create a number of new jobs in service and infrastructure support, project management, developers and analysts, and build on its existing IT team based in the region.

The new initiative will create a range of career opportunities for IT professionals to support a number of existing systems including SAP ERP, as well as looking at how technology can improve the service offered to ABP’s customers and business.

A recruitment event will be held on 13th November at ABP’s Cardiff Port Office, from 7pm-9pm, where those interested in exploring the opportunities can meet with the ABP team and learn more about the project.

Commenting on the initiative, ABP’s CEO Henrik L. Pedersen, said: “Investing in technology is an important part of our future as a business. We are delighted to be investing in Wales, and the vibrant city of Cardiff, to create our new IT hub, which will use the latest technology to improve our business in a wide range of areas from stock management to customer service.”

ABP’s Cardiff technology hub will be part of a wider IT solutions network the company is rolling out, with other locations including London, Hull and Southampton, all opening later this year.
