Hello. We’re Crimson and we inspire change through technology.
Listening first to our customers remains our North Star.
Putting customers at the centre of what we do is paramount to Crimson’s success story. As a thriving digital transformation consultancy that serves the needs of discerning organisations, hiring managers and IT candidates alike, Crimson operates at the critical intersection of talent and technology.
Across Crimson’s boutique IT recruitment services and specialist Microsoft consulting expertise, our colleagues’ driven work ethic and Crimson’s vibrant culture create the perfect ingredients to unleash talents and transform business.
Our vision is to empower others to make a positive difference.
In today’s busy, fractured world, Crimson believes that it is in the service of others that we can each find personal well-being. Our vision is to empower others to make a positive difference to people’s lives.
Our philosophy was laid by Crimson’s founders at the turn of the millennium, and it remains tightly woven into all that we do: the company we keep, the charities we support, the opportunities we create for our colleagues and the initiatives we prioritise. We happen to realise our vision through our passion for recruitment and the limitless possibilities we see in Microsoft technology.
Crimson commits to Microsoft’s Partner Pledge that supports diversity, ethical standards, apprenticeships and a more equitable digital future.
Our mission redefines customer expectations.
To breathe life into our vision, we follow a mission that seeks two objectives:
- Make technology recruitment simple. We aim to make hiring great IT talent or finding that next IT role as straightforward as possible for all parties.
- Rapidly solve the biggest business and technology challenges. Getting more from the Microsoft platform, we build intelligent customer experiences and help people work smarter.
Our values reflect our people and culture.
