Attendance system could help ambitious bespoke company
Stable Resources, a Cardiff-based IT recruitment and consultancy specialist, is expanding its new headquarters thanks to NatWest funding.
The £168,875 commercial loan enabled Stable Resources to buy the Talbot Street premises. The expansion is a part of the company’s 10-year plan to triple its workforce and increase its turnover. Currently they employ 5 people.
Founded in 2001, Stable Resources uses a bespoke operational model to provide employees and consultancy service across the cyber, defence, security and information assurance industries. High-profile clients include Microsoft and Hitachi Consulting.
Managing director Anwen Aspden said: “We have been looking for the perfect location to bring us closer to Cardiff city centre, with a view to welcoming our existing clients and contractors at our new offices, as well as offering ample space to accommodate our exciting plans for growth over the next 10 years.
“Thanks to NatWest, we have been able to secure the perfect base on Talbot Street in Pontcanna. We’re also very much looking forward to meeting and working with Cardiff’s local businesses and creating new partnerships that will help to grow the city’s technical services along with realising new potential opportunities.”
Matthew Maunder, relationship manager at NatWest, said: “The team at Stable Resources are experts in their field and I have no doubt they will exceed their ambitious plans over the next year and beyond.”

You may be surprised at how useful a small, bespoke company like Stable Resources would find our time and attendance system. Currently they have 5 employees with ambitions to triple that – they only have to double it to become suitable for our WinTA.NET Start Edition. This small version of our powerful WinTA.NET software is aimed at companies with between 10 and 50 employees.
Many people still believe that time and attendance systems are only clocking terminals, and so are only any use for waged hours in production facilities and other warehouse environments.
Nothing could be further from the truth. We do offer clocking terminals, but our software and web-based Self-Service Module (SSM) have a wide range of features and functions which would be very useful to employees in a salaried office environment.
For example, if HR staff or managers of a company without any computerised way of recording attendance are trying to build a case that an employee has been late too often and should be dismissed, they may resort to combing through old emails or hoping that supervisors wrote something down when the employee came in after the assigned start time.
With our system, all the HR staff would need to do is log on! They could even make a neat, clear graphical report out of the clocking data if they need to make their point to senior managers.
