Softworks leads the Time and Attendance industry in the Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu European Fast 500 Awards

The European Fast 500 Awards recognise and rank the fastest-growing technology companies in Europe over a three-year period and it is no small achievement considering that thousands of companies, across all industry sectors, from right across Europe put themselves forward for nomination. According to Karel Bakkes, Deloitte partner in charge of European Technology Fast 500, "The established and emerging companies that made the Deloitte European Technology Fast 500 have indeed made an incredible achievement. This accomplishment truly positions these companies to be the key forces behind economic growth in Europe in the years ahead".

Being the only time & attendance solutions provider in its field to achieve the European Fast 500 list is a testament to Softworks continued commitment to developing innovative solutions, its strong relationship with customers and partners, as well as the commitment and contribution from its creative and talented employees. According to Managing Director, Andrew Ferguson, "we believe that the key element to our success and strength to date is our outstanding team of employees. Softworks has worked very hard to create an environment in which our employees can prosper, thrive and compete. However, any company is only as good as its customers, and we're fortunate to have longstanding, stimulating and enjoyable relationships with local enterprises, as well as some of the world's most well known companies, who believe that we can best meet their needs".

Softworks has come along way since its foundation. From small beginnings, Softworks has grown with the industries it serves to become an international player, with offices in the UK, Ireland and Paris. Each step has been exciting, rewarding, challenging and a learning experience that they have collectively inherited. Ferguson continues, 'It is our goal to continue this exceptional journey to become a world-class innovator and an employer of choice, taking pride in our excellent products and services'.
With its second appearance in the Deloitte and Touche Fast 50 Awards earlier this year, Softworks ranks as one of the fastest growing companies for the last four years and has proven that it has the vision, and the fortitude, to excel in the highly competitive technology industry.
