Who we are
Refractis is a boutique consultancy that helps organisations realise tangible, lasting value from their technology investments.
We understand that technology strategy, transformation and delivery are challenging.
Our experience has shown that when intelligent, driven and pragmatic people work together, extraordinary results follow.
Our consultants bring expertise across every aspect of IT, from strategy and architecture through design and delivery to operations and outsourcing. We have delivered complex projects across public and private sectors and thrive on solving problems at the most senior levels of organisations.
Our values
Our values tie Refractis together. We believe that being clear about them will help us to build the firm to which we aspire.
We measure our own success, and our delivery for you, against these values; they guide us in our day-to-day decision making and most particularly when the going gets tough.
We serve the best interests of our clients – with no exceptions.
We will always be honest, transparent and straight-forward and seek to challenge constructively.
We work together to get things done – we succeed as a team not as individuals.
We are leaders and self-starters. We are not afraid to try new things and will learn when things don't go right.
Having fun and building relationships are key ingredients for great client deliveries and growing a sound business.

Flexible working arrangements tailored to each engagement
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all working patterns. While we value in-person collaboration and the impact it has on building strong teams and delivering great work, we recognise the need for flexibility. Whether it’s client-site work, hybrid arrangements, or remote delivery, we shape ways of working around what each engagement requires while supporting balance and individual preferences wherever possible.
Current job openings
What do our people say?
"The Refractis values focus on doing the best job possible for our clients, even under pressure, working as a team to deliver more than the sum of our parts, and finally the importance of having fun whilst working hard."
"Refractis works with large global businesses to solve complex technology problems, so there’s a real sense of scale and importance in the work we do."
"We take our work seriously and always put clients first, but there’s also a really supportive and relaxed atmosphere within the team."
"I wanted to work at Refractis instead of a large firm because I wanted the opportunity to really build something new from the beginning. Being able to sit in the office and be part of growing a real startup has been really exciting."
"I've really enjoyed building long-lasting, multi-engagement relationships with my clients - and being seen as reliable, trusted partners."
