Benefits of Working at CTG

We believe in hiring the right people and giving them the opportunities to grow with our company. We consider ourselves as something more than an IT company: Our business model relies on great people, and we empower them to do great things that ensure our clients achieve their business goals. Since our founding in 2006, we have continued to refine our compensation packages to reflect that value we place on our employees.

SALARY: We start by offering competitive salaries, which are based on experience and market location. Attractive salaries demonstrate our investment in hiring the right people and starting a long-term investment in their future with CTG.

REWARDS: Bonuses reflect ambitious-but-achievable job goals, which are aligned with our corporate business strategy. Put another way, when our business hits targeted milestones, our people share in our success.

HEALTH BENEFITS: We offer full medical, dental and vision insurance, allowing our people to focus on staying healthy and knowing that they have the right coverage if they need it.

VACATION: Our employees take advantage of two weeks of paid vacation annually.

RETIREMENT: CTG makes regular corporate contributions to our employees’ retirement funds, helping you plan for the long term.

TRAINING: We realize that IT is a specialized industry, so we invest significantly in ensuring our people have the knowledge and training to do their job. As employees master product lines and services, they gain the opportunity to advance into roles with greater responsibility. Our people own their personal development by pursuing the tools and skills they need to grow with CTG.

TEAM BUILDING: About once a month, we bring all our employees together for a team-building activity. It might be attending a sporting event in Richmond or perhaps in Washington, D.C., or closing the office a little early for a company dinner. We work hard to deliver the high quality service we pledge to our clients, so we encourage our people to take time to have fun and collaborative outside our daily work.

ANNUAL HOLIDAY PARTY: In December, we host our employees – accompanied by their significant others – for a weekend celebration to reflect on the past year and build excitement for what’s to come. In 2015, we enjoyed three days in New York City.

Now Hiring: We’re Looking for People with Drive to Succeed

By John Monahan

A company on the move always relies on the talents of its people. And with a strategic plan tailored to smart growth in the year ahead, Convergent Technologies Group is looking to hire people with the right skills and drive to advance us on our journey.

We are looking for people who:

1. Thrive in an entrepreneurial environment. We believe in hiring smart people and giving them the opportunity to do good work. Ideally, new employees will bring some unique and proven skills within the IT industry, but we also offer tailored training with our key manufacturing partners. As a small business, we give our people the opportunity to push their boundaries and learn new skills with our products as well as our day-to-day operations. This is a two-way street: We’ll give you the nourishment you need to recognize your potential and turn it all into something real.

2. Show passion about being a solid team contributor. We believe in giving our people the freedom and tools to forge their own path, as they deliver work that advances us on some ambitious goals that we share. Together, we can make a bigger impact than within our individual roles. We work hard as a team, and we celebrate our successes regularly. (Have you heard about our corporate holiday trip each December? Last year, we hosted our employees and their significant others on an all-expenses-paid weekend in New York City!)

3. Find innovative ways to get the job done. After all, we’re in the IT business, where inventiveness and problem solving are part of daily life. We want people who demonstrate creativity in how they work, which opens up new, market-differentiating opportunities in how we partner with and support our clients. Our manufacturing partners are moving at lightning pace with product innovations, and our people need to find the best ways to engage with customers to implement the right solutions.

4. Want to push our business to hit the next level. We’re at a pivotal moment in our corporate evolution, and we know that building the right talent pool is essential to achieving some aggressive-but-attainable business goals. We need people who have the drive to push up to those heights, while also maintaining our hallmark of high-touch customer service and ensuring our long-term sustainability.

Over the past decade, Jeff and I have consciously crafted a business where the contributions of our employees are recognized and rewarded, starting with competitive salaries and complemented with generous bonuses. By building a business where people want to come to work, we’ve grown at paces that consistently outperform others in our industry.

What roles are open now?

Right now, as we look at our business forecasts for the coming year, we are hiring to expand our sales and marketing outreach. We want people who not only understand our vision, but can see themselves as key contributors in achieving that vision. More specifically, we are hiring:

• Enterprise account managers – serve as the critical bridge between our clients and our services team. Communications skills and product knowledge are critical for this role.

• Junior marketing specialist – supports our overall marketing strategy, particularly as we move into new markets and offer an expanded product portfolio.

• Junior accounting associate – aids in back-office functions that keep our business running smoothly with solid financial reporting.

Applying to CTG is easy: Just send your resume to resume@ctgva.com. Most importantly, tell us why we need to hire you – and what you can offer to help CTG accelerate our future.
