FDM is an international IT services company with three business units: IT Staffing, IT Professional Services and IT Training. Founded in 1984, FDM has headquarters in the UK and offices in the USA, Germany and Luxembourg. We have a rapidly expanding client base which includes HSBC Investment Bank, Fidelity Investments, British Airways, JP Morgan, The AA, Sybase and Reuters. Our award winning on-line IT training programme, FDM Academy, is the longest running of its kind in the UK, and offers candidates the opportunity to learn JAVA, C#.NET Testing or Investment Banking application support. On completion of the programme, these specialists (known as Mounties), are then placed with our clients, differentiating us from the majority of our competitors in the IT staffing market, who rely on a shared database of contractors. Through the utilisation of Mounties and freelance contractors, FDM can provide our clients with a combination of skills, significantly help reduce costs and offer the guarantee that FDM’s permanent staff will remain on site for the duration of the contract. FDM can project manage the whole recruitment function and using the Group’s technical expertise, identify candidates and interview candidates prior to placement.FDM’s Professional Services division offers development, support and product implementation; with highly skilled teams working on packaged or bespoke solutions for its clients. The Professional Services division primarily uses Mounties on these projects, providing the client with the added comfort of stability of resource and a cost effective solution.The company was listed on AIM in April 2005 and has a market capitalisation of £19.5m with annual sales of approximately £40 million.
