Telecoms Consultants
What a competitive market place the telecoms (telco) industry has become. – Occasional huge rewards offered, but huge pressures constantly. Telecommunication consultancy is not a business for the faint hearted – simply to remain independent, to maintain high professional standards and to adhere to good ethical practice requires an unwillingness to ever compromise, clear vision and a strongly principled way of doing business (see Society of Telecommunications Consultants) .

The market demands that telco professionals are flexible, highly knowledgeable, with an aptitude to project and contract work. In the main Telecoms Consultants are nowadays working on a freelance or contract basis, and as such require a solid professional footing for their work.

A quick look at the UKCTA (UK Competitive Telecommunications Association) website reflects how the industry is becoming more regulated, and the telecoms consultancy becoming more professional, and with the emerging technologies and the increasing reliance on telecommunications, this is set to continue.
