[edit] History
Northbrook Technology established its first office in Corporation Street, Belfast and started recruiting in early 1999. The company has since moved to its current larger headquarters building in Lanyon Place and has opened a second facility within the Magee College campus of the University of Ulster in Derry. In 2005 the company was awarded the Queen's Award for Enterprise.
The Strabane Facility holds the ATSC (Allstate Technology Support Centre) which provides frontline contact and Technology Support for Allstate Employees and Allstate Agencies, as well as contractors home and abroad. This is the centre which has seen the largest recent growth of outsourcing in the company, taking advantage of the local expertise in the IT sector.
