AMOR Group, the Glasgow-based IT specialist formed last year in a £28m management buyout, yesterday unveiled plans to double turnover and recruit at least 20 staff after a number of significant contract wins.

The group, which employs 380 workers across six sites on both sides of the border, said it now has vacancies for software developers and project managers in the energy, transport and public sector practices.

The recruitment drive has been prompted by major expansion plans coupled with a series of lucrative business wins - although the company did not disclose the value of the new contracts it said its Coventry office has recently won a place on a Learning and Skills Council procurement framework.

John Innes, Amor's chief executive, said the company had 'robust' plans for expansion over the next few years.

"We are now the biggest independent business solutions provider in Scotland and we have firm plans to double our turnover to £60m in the next three years.

"Amor Group has a vast amount of expertise in the energy, transport and public sectors and we have recently secured a considerable amount of new business".
