**What we can do for you**:
We’re a transparent, honest and fiercely equal employer that believes completely in providing the best possible work experience for our employee’s:
**Real Flexibility** - we’re a family first organisation, and if the work gets done, you can work when and wherever you want. A healthy approach for most of our teams seems to be splitting three ways between home, customer sites and the office.

**Awesome Environment** - all of our employee’s will tell you that we foster an easy going environment, are experts at what we do and care deeply about what we work on - that’s in large part because we’re privately owned by those that work day-to-day in the business, and the company was started specifically to find a way for people to take more enjoyment from their work.

**Interesting Work** - these days most of our customers are household names and many of our projects have an important impact on the world around us. The kind of things we do regularly include working with not-for-profits to transform how they leverage technology, working with public bodies to shape digital services and working with top tier private entities to bring genuinely new and meaningful products and services to market.
