Right from the start, we wanted Bluefin to be a different breed of consultancy. Our values didn't just materialise on a white board after a brain-storming session. We just looked at what makes us different – in the eyes of our people and our clients – and distilled it down to five core values.

Teamwork

• We work collaboratively with all of our stakeholders, internal and external.
• Knowledge sharing is ingrained in our culture: in employee feedback sessions, 97% of consultants agree that “Bluefin has a knowledge sharing culture”.
• We value the rich diversity of all people and cultures.
• We work hard for each other, not some distant corporate parent.

Well-being

• We look after the well-being of all our people and we understand that smart, energetic people need to feel good to thrive.
• Happy people are highly motivated people. Motivated people do great work. Great work reaps rewards. Rewards make people even happier.

Integrity

• We are always honest with our employees, customers, partners and suppliers.
• We always treat others with respect.
• We promise only what we can deliver.
• We behave ethically and take responsibility for our actions.

Customer focus

• There’s only one way to run a business: give customers the best possible advice and service.
• If it’s not right for a customer, it’s not right for us. For example we will advise a customer not to do something, even if it means less work for us. But it means almost every customer will act as a reference for new business.
• We try to exceed the expectations of our customers.

Excellence

• In some industries, “striving for excellence” is hot air. But in IT, anything less that success is failure, it’s binary. So we aim high – very high – not just as individuals, but as a team.
• Our people get whatever training they need to develop the right skills, and the right attitude. Having high technical, professional and personal standards is just good common sense.
• Innovation and creativity aren’t just profitable, they’re also fun and essential.
  We are proud of our achievements.
