Jobs

Last Saturday night, on October 13th, more than 300 people came together in the ArtCube in Ghent to listen to live music and dance the night away. All while raising money for a good cause! The ArtCube’s industrial-style, red brick walls provided the perfect backdrop for the concert. In total, more than 40 musicians, some 60 helping hands and a core team of 12 party planners made sure it was an unforgettable night.

As a business and IT consultancy company, delaware works in a highly competitive environment when it comes to attracting and developing talent. Therefore, HR is an essential focus area. In this regard, the Belgian HR team has rolled out an important project that is adopted by various foreign entities.

At delaware we believe the world in which we work defines our organizational and personal health. We want people to know they can find a purpose, whether it is by donating to a cause that is near to our hearts, or by taking up the responsibility to join a program on the other side of the globe. Through all of our initiatives and efforts, small and big, we believe we will see a positive change in our surroundings.

Nearly half of the global workforce is now female, a surprisingly high number compared to how many women were involved in the workforce these last few decades. However, the number of women in tech jobs is more disappointing, given that the percentage is even lower than in the 1980s. We know that IT, in particular, is struggling with the attrition of skilled people so, set against the celebrations of International Women’s Day, let’s take a look at what we can do to change this. And to support the women that love technology and are interested in working in the industry.
