We want to offer a huge Code String welcome to Zoe, who takes up a full-time post as Digital Project Manager. Zoe joins us after a period contracting for Boots, where she regularly commuted to London and Nottingham. She’s pleased that her role with us is rather more local, given that she lives in Harborough.…
Okay, we continue to deliver on our promise to keep you up to date with the people who make Code String what it is – a dynamic business. Introducing Lara, who joins as an apprentice but, as the title says, is not a typical apprentice. Six years ago, Lara graduated from Leeds Beckett University with…
We promised you some background information on some (or perhaps all) or our amazing new intake of Code String staff. And so here is stuff you don’t know about Darren, our newest Senior Developer. Let’s get straight to the point: Darren is a Viking! It’s surprising what you uncover during an interview but how much…
Great news for us, and for anyone focused on documented quality procedures: Code String has retained its ISO certifications. We are ISO27001:2013 and ISO 9001:2015 compliant – that’s for Information Security Management and Quality Management respectively.

We have been certified…in a good way! Code String are proud to announce that a major company objective for the year has been completed. Attaining ISO certification for the business is a real achievement. We were successfully audited by the Alcumus ISOQAR Certification Technical Review Team late last year and it has now been confirmed that the…
We consider ourselves rather lucky to be based in such a lovely little market town as Market Harborough. It’s a peaceful place that has a great community spirit, but with a fast train to London so we’re not totally cut off in the sticks. We reckon all the fields and fresh air make for a…
It is with great pleasure that I introduce Kiran Chettra and Nick Wake, our fabulous new apprentices! In July 2016 Kiran and Nick made the decision to become fully fledged geeks by joining the Code String Team. Here’s what they had to say over a cup of tea… AUDREY: You guys have been with us…
