What an incredible afternoon and evening at the 2024 Commercial Services Group Awards last Friday! With a fast-growing team across our expanding number of brands, this annual employee awards evening was the perfect way for our CSG colleagues to come together and celebrate each other’s successes. We were delighted to have several colleagues nominated and want to offer a massive congratulations to Cantium's winner: ⭐ Brett Smith, Account Director - ‘Outstanding Achievement’ ⭐ This award honours an individual who has made an exceptional contribution to the business. Brett's hard work and dedication, supported by the wider Cantium team, has led to achieving and maintaining a 98% customer satisfaction score with one of Cantium's largest customers.

About us
Cantium is a managed ICT partner, providing bespoke IT services and solutions to the UK public sector and its supply chain. Our aim is to support the UK public sector in regaining control of its IT operations by redefining the outsourcing model. We do this by engaging with organisations early in the procurement process, better defining their requirements, and providing expert insights into solutions and strategies to achieve their wider goals. Cantium is also a Local Authority Trading Company (LATCo), wholly owned by Kent County Council (KCC) via Commercial Services Group (CSG). Part of our heritage and our ethos is that we believe in generating profit for a purpose and giving back to services that support our communities. We recognise that we are in a privileged position with an intimate insight into the challenges that the sector faces. Therefore, we work directly with the public sector and its supply chain to design and deliver better citizen-facing services. Furthermore, all the profits that Cantium generates are fed back into Kent County Council to invest in front-line services and community programmes. Therefore, working with Cantium means that public funds continue to support front-line public services. Cantium’s commercial success also means that we can invest in our people, systems, solutions, and innovation, which continues to drive efficiencies and give back to the public purse with clients across the UK.

Delighted to have supported Highworth Grammar School with their Year 12 Interview Day! We hope it was inspiring for the pupils to see Meg Whorlow, previously a pupil at the school and now Service Request Analyst for Cantium, return to where it all started and share her journey. We truly believe in the importance of nurturing young talent and look forward to continuing to support and inspire future tech leaders. 💡 #CareerDevelopment #FutureWorkforce #FutureLeaders #STEMEducation #YouthEmpowerment Amy Hodges
Full circle moment - back at my old school, Highworth Grammar School ✨ This time, however, I was on the other side of the desk, supporting pupils for their Year 12 interview day. I had the pleasure of meeting some truly inspiring young people full of enthusiasm and big dreams, and I loved hearing about their passion for cybersecurity, coding, and healthcare. It was an excellent opportunity for the students to get some experience of the interview process before they head out into the big world of work. I’d recommend any young people to take up similar opportunities if they arise! I’m thrilled to have been asked to come back and chat with them about apprenticeships and the exciting opportunities these can open up. Thank you for having me!😊 #Inspiration #FutureTechLeaders #CyberSecurity #Coding #Apprenticeships #NextGen #STEM #Education Amy Hodges Cantium Business Solutions

Quite a change of scenery today! Had a great time at Bromcom's annual Shard event for MATs and LAs, with Debbie Rose and Hayley Power from our Education Systems team. 🎉 It was great to connect with so many new people and hear from industry leaders, including Michael Heard and Al Kingsley, to name a few. The direction AI is taking in Education is certainly exciting, and it was inspiring to hear more about the impact this can have for our schools and MATs. 🌟
