LA International has provided the Agency with a high quality service which has allowed us to hire the volume of effective, skilled Contractors we’ve needed to deliver our projects on time and to budget.

LA International has provided this, being cooperative and creative with the solutions they’ve offered us.
We have a strong working relationship with their account team and they are an asset to our business; we value the role they play in helping us to deliver our organisational objectives.
University of East London, Associate Director, IT Programme and Projects Office
LA International has worked hard to get to know our business needs and, as a result, have been able to supply me with great staff time and time again. One of the reasons I particularly like working with LA International is the personal care and attention to detail - ensuing their placed staff and us as the customer are looked after.
The team care deeply about the service they offer and we have a great working relationship. I would recommend LA International to other organisations looking for a first class recruitment service.
JISC, Director of Technology and Analytics

I would not hesitate in recommending LA International to other areas of Jisc, or organisations that wish to recruit high-level IT staff into their business.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Application Service Lead
After a comprehensive tendering exercise, LA International successfully won a large project which centred around our Application and Testing Function. Their first task was to migrate 30+ resources from an incumbent supplier, which they did very effectively and with no disruption to our live services. LA International then worked closely with our business to analyse where processes could be improved and where cost could be removed.
During this time there was an unforeseen ramp up in resource demand – this presented issues on several levels – a large volume was required at very short notice, security clearance was mandatory and geographical challenges were encountered due to our main site location. LA International managed to successfully deliver the resources by utilising pre-qualified resource pools, maximising on their strengths within the security space and by playing a major part in the interview process.
Overall, as Technical and Service Delivery Manager on the project, I can confirm that LA International successfully delivered everything asked of them in a very professional manner and I would highly recommend them.
Hewlett Packard - Account Executive
“Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) is a strategic customer to HP and as such it is imperative that we have a skilled, highly motivated workforce to ensure we deliver service excellence on everything that we do. LA International provides all of the external IT Contractors and therefore we place a great reliance on them to help meet this key objective. In recent years LA International has worked extensively to deliver value to this programme, both in terms of the delivery and management of the resources they provide… Like HP, LA International understands what good client service means and they have shown a true partnership approach to working with us on this programme.
Lockheed Martin, Defence Project Manager
I consider LA International a core company on our project team. Our end-Client environment presents staffing challenges both from the perspective of security clearances as well as the dynamic nature of just in time staffing. LA International has responded to requests ranging from very skilled network and virtualization engineers to logistics and even program management office support. I have found the responsiveness of LA International to be the best of any company I have employed in Europe. The resumes they have provided have been very qualified and diverse candidates. They take the initiative to shape offers according to my constraints and provide options. They also do the hard work that other companies sometimes rely on the prime contractor to do.
I feel like LA International has a genuine interest in the people they have provided on the program. Teamwork is essential with a consultant work force and LA International works alongside Lockheed to establish that environment, including team builder events. When I call LA International, I am assured to get a return call that day from someone in the company that demonstrates an effort to help.
