Description

ANS are a 750-strong team of straight-talking, first-class tech experts. And our mission is to do what no other organisation is doing - making digital transformation accessible to all.

We hack the tech adoption curve and bring digital transformation technology, knowledge and process to all organisations, large or small, big budgets or limited resources, public or private sector.

Our people are the lifeblood of our business. They dream-up solutions that have never been delivered before. They dare to tackle problems, no one else can. Every day they wake up and challenge the status quo. It's no wonder we've been hailed the Mavericks of the tech industry.

We aren't afraid to set outrageously big goals. We experiment. We dare to try new things. We take tough decisions, push back and always challenge the status quo. We pride ourselves on being authentic, honest, straight talking, and transparent. We take responsibility. We show humility and if we make a mistake, we hold our hands up.

Openness, ambition and passion are what drive us every day. We are bold, daring, disruptive, and innovative - and we do it like no other

Why work for ANS?

At ANS we try to do things a bit differently. We don't settle for 'that'll do' or for 'that's how we usually do it'. We're a diverse, curious crowd and we like to know why things are done in a certain way. Not just for the sake it, but because we want to change things, to improve them, to create something special. We're a down to earth, straighttalking bunch. Who have great ideas, do amazing work and who don't accept the usual ways of doing things.
There are about 700 of us who think like this, helping to mould one of the UK's few £1 billion tech businesses. So, you know you'll be working with lots of other smart, daring, likeminded people.
The important thing is what we do together.
Our culture is built on mentoring and progression, so whether you're an just starting out, or joining us with years of experience, our goal is simple. We want to find the best talent and invest in our people so that they can be the best they want to be, because when you progress, so do we.
