About Us

Meet Rhys and Halo
Rhys De Gruchy, Graduate Development and Support Leader at Halo, introduces the company: one of the fastest-growing businesses in the UK.

Halo builds service management software used by more than 5,000 organisations in over 100 countries. We’re privately owned, British and based at the Willis Building in Ipswich.

Our customers include Sky, Sports Direct, Siemens, Lenovo, the University of Cambridge and Red Bull. We’re also the only UK vendor named in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for ITSM Platforms.

We’ve never taken outside investment and we’re not for sale. It means we can take a longer view on people and give them the time to learn properly.

Halo doesn’t make senior hires. Everyone joins at the same level and starts learning the business through real customers. From there, people learn from the colleagues already doing the job and move on when they’re ready.

We hire from any degree discipline. More than half of our people studied something other than business or IT, our average age is 24.5, and 93% joined Halo with no previous office experience.

Starting salary is £35,000. Any degree. No experience required.

Great Place to Work Certified

It’s official! Thanks to our people, we are proud to announce that we have been certified as a Great Place to Work by Great Place to Work, a global authority on workplace culture.

Having 97% of our employees say that they were made to feel welcome when they joined the company, is a testament to our incredible team and the culture we are building together.

We are dedicated to creating a supportive work environment and hope to increase this number up to 100% in due course!
