Latitude Resource launches their new website


As of today when you visit the Latitude Resource website, you will be faced with our new look.  Whilst the majority of the changes are cosmetic, the two main changes to our website is the addition of of our Professional Recruitment page - due to repeated requests from our clients, we now source, vet and place professionals outside of the GIS field.

The other exciting change is that the Latitude Resource website is now mobile-friendly - we are now accessible via your smartphone or tablet, making connecting with us so much more efficient - you can connect with us on the more popular social media platforms

fb  in  tw

We hope you find the new website fresh and modern; we worked hard to make sure it contains valuable information to assist both the client looking for a professional resource and the professional looking for the right career.

For any questions, suggestions, feedback or comments, please contact us
