IT recruitment, Newcastle Upon Tyne
Why Newcastle Upon Tyne?
Across the world, there are many towns and cities called Newcastle (at least 30) but, perhaps due to a longing for the real thing, they are all named after the original, because there is only one Newcastle upon Tyne. This great and historic city lies on the north bank of the river Tyne. Although it is compact and has a population of only about 300,000, Newcastle is the largest city between Leeds and Edinburgh, and is the regional capital of the North East of England.
Newcastle’s rich history and cosmopolitan nightlife is joined together by 7 bridges across the river to some of the UK’s most exciting new cultural developments in Gateshead such as the BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art, international music centre The Sage Gateshead and world famous public art The Angel of the North.
Why Newcastle Upon Tyne?
These twin cities of Newcastle and Gateshead together are a great place to live, work and study. There really is something for everyone, a bustling and vibrant city centre, a huge variety of shops, exciting bars, restaurants and nightlife, great stuff for kids to do and you’re never far away from a little oasis of peace and tranquillity. This is all underpinned by an excellent business and commercial infrastructure and first class education and leisure facilities.
It is also easy to get to here, as it is well served by road and rail links. By train, Newcastle can be reached within 3 hours from London, and it is only 90 minutes away from Edinburgh. Newcastle International Airport has direct flights to London's Heathrow and Gatwick airports (about 45 minutes flight time), and many airlines operate daily direct flights to capital cities in Europe.
