Tue, 23rd Sep 2025

AltTab has expanded its team with the appointment of Andrew Barrett as Emerging Technology Lead (Cloud & AI) in response to increased demand for cloud and artificial intelligence solutions.

AltTab's decision to expand comes after a sustained period of business growth, with clients across industries seeking cloud-based infrastructure, AI-driven business tools, and integrated digital solutions. The company reports this rise in demand mirrors wider market trends, as organisations accelerate their adoption of cloud technologies and look to leverage artificial intelligence to improve operations.

Market drivers

Organisations are increasingly viewing cloud and AI as key enablers for increasing efficiency, supporting decision-making and enhancing the customer experience. Over the past year, AltTab has experienced a notable increase in clients seeking support with these technologies, reflecting their growing strategic importance.

Charles Paramananthan, Director and Co-Founder, commented on the need to support clients through this period of technological transition:

"Our clients are increasingly looking for guidance in navigating the fast-moving world of AI. Bringing on an Emerging Technology Lead with a focus on Cloud & AI ensures we can continue delivering the expertise, insight, and tailored solutions our clients expect from us, while also driving innovation within our own offerings."

Focus of new role

The role of Emerging Technology Lead includes consulting with clients to identify digital transformation opportunities, designing and implementing scalable and secure cloud architectures, and integrating artificial intelligence into business workflows. The position will also involve collaboration with partners to more rapidly deliver new technologies to customers.

AltTab believes this appointment represents an important step in strengthening its capabilities in critical technology domains. The company has outlined its intention to continue strategic growth at a national level, broadening both its team and service offering.

Simon Rose, Director and Co-Founder, emphasised the broader significance of this new appointment:

"The expansion of our team reflects more than just headcount growth; it's about investing in specialist talent to lead our clients through the next wave of technological change."
