Values

Five company values shape the way we operate

  • We are a professional team
  • We act with consideration & purpose
  • We do the right thing for our clients
  • We have a learning culture
  • We hold ourselves accountable

We are a professional team

Our clients work in sectors where security, reliability and risk mitigation are paramount. Our collective approach is marked by the highest standard of conduct, expertise, and dedication to our work. Coreblue is ISO9001, ISO27001 and Cyber Essentials Plus Certified. These certifications provide external validation of the professional standards to which the team hold themselves accountable.

We act with consideration & purpose

Developing custom software is principally about problem-solving. The team at Coreblue is focused on taking practical, actionable steps towards solving problems effectively and efficiently in the pursuit of delivering as much value as possible for our clients.

We do the right thing for our clients

High assurance custom software is a significant investment. To justify that investment, there must be an opportunity to deliver substantial value. We are a good fit for complex projects that deliver significant commercial or operational advantages. To achieve this, we work closely with our clients from the outset, becoming an extension of their team and immersing ourselves in their organisation.

We have a learning culture

The team at Coreblue has a collective dedication to continuous growth and development. Software moves quickly, and we ensure we’re moving with it to our business and clients’ advantage. We value curiosity and embrace opportunities to expand our knowledge, skills, and perspectives. We continually invest in the learning and development of our team, providing a tailored and ongoing CPD programme to all members.

We hold ourselves accountable

Accountability is the cornerstone of our work culture, driving us to be transparent, proactive, and dedicated in every task we undertake. It empowers us to learn from challenges, celebrate successes, and continuously evolve. By embracing accountability, we foster a sense of trust and reliability among our clients and colleagues, knowing that we consistently deliver on our commitments and invest our time and resources into the areas that have the most significant impact on our clients.

Letter From Our Ceo

Hello,

When Dan and I founded Coreblue in 2016, our dream was to forge a company to pioneer technology solutions for real-world challenges. Our journey has been one of passion and boundless curiosity, driven by the infinite potential that technology offers. Recent times have only magnified this potential, reminding us that the horizon of possibilities is ever-expanding – a true frontier.

It’s an honour to be invited into our client’s business to work alongside them, helping to deliver some of the best-in-class software where it is critically relied upon.

Our path has been graced with the privilege of partnering with clients around the world, including Europe, America, the Middle East and Asia, seamlessly integrating cutting-edge software into their businesses. We’ve both travelled to several clients in these areas, including multiple trips to Africa to support the launch of a new mobile banking application and into Europe to support our clients on the ground, shoulder to shoulder transforming visions into reality – and we’ve been able to have some fun along the way.

Developing real solutions alongside our clients and seeing, first-hand, the impact of transforming business operations or breathing life into entirely novel products which open completely new markets has been and continues to be a privilege for the whole team at Coreblue.

If you’re in search of a partner who is not only invested in your technology vision but also committed to understanding your goals, consider working with Coreblue. We commit to being your collaborator, your advocate and a team dedicated to your success.

CEO, Coreblue

Places

Investing in our surroundings

Headquartered in the South West of England, we’ve formed close relationships with Universities, Colleges and Schools across the region, providing placements, tutoring and support to computer science students.

We offer internships and placement years to Plymouth, Exeter and Bristol University students, supporting them in their final year with a return to university bursary of £4,000 accompanied by a job offer; getting graduates into work and retaining talent in the region.

We also look to support local organisations and initiatives. In the last year, we’ve donated £10,000 of computer and office equipment to Plymouth’s Diversity Business Incubator (DBI) to support those from diverse backgrounds in starting their own business and sponsored a girls’ U10 football team.

Pledges

Playing our part

Our pledges are aligned with a number of UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) (which is a set of 17 aims created to pave the way for peace and prosperity for the planet).

Good Health and Wellbeing (SDG 3) We will support the emotional and physical wellbeing of our team. Examples include enhanced paternity leave and the provision of a comprehensive private health insurance scheme.

Gender Equality (SDG 5) We take a proactive position regarding the gender pay gap by championing the STEM and Women in Tech agendas. We have confirmed this commitment through signing up to the UK Government’s Tech Talent Charter.

Decent Work and Economic Growth (SDG 8) We will invest in training and professional qualifications to support team members progress into more senior and high paying roles. We will also support the growth of the UK digital economy by delivering better citizen services and improving access to online services.

Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure (SDG 9) We will support our clients through impact-driven technology solutions, which positively benefit society and the local economy whilst increasing the capacity of the UK to be a the forefront of the digital economy.

Reduced Inequalities (SDG 10) We will seek to level the playing field, including by educating young people about digital careers and mentoring job seekers from disadvantaged backgrounds.

Climate Action (SDG 13) We will help to protect our planet through a carbon negative programme. One small example is our commitment to donating or recycling 100% of our retired IT equipment. We commit to reduce emissions by at least 2.5% per year and target a 5% per year reduction, being Net Zero by 2050.
