Ambition:IT, the no fee IT recruitment service for employers on Merseyside, will be exhibiting at this year's BusinessLIVE expo as part of the Liverpool Daily Post & Echo's BusinessLIVE Week.

The exhibition is being held in the heart of Liverpool's business district at City Exchange and is an opportunity for businesses across Merseyside to demonstrate their products and services, as well as develop links with other organisations.

Jill Prasad, Ambition:IT Project Manager, says: "There are local businesses out there that are still struggling to find high quality technical staff or paying inflated recruitment agency fees. BusinessLIVE is the ideal opportunity for us to get in front of these people and show them that IT recruitment doesn't have to be painful or expensive, and that there is another way."

Ambition:IT will be on Stand 222 at BusinessLIVE on Tuesday 13th and Wednesday 14th July. Visitors to the stand will have a chance to win two tickets for 'Last Night of the Pops' hosted by larger than life American conductor, Carl Davis, with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra.
