Founded over 39 years ago and headquartered in Belfast, Kainos is a global digital technology company listed on the FTSE 250. With more than 3,100 people working across 18 countries, we combine the disruptive power of technology with the courageous ambition of our people to create a better world for all. We partner with some of the world's most influential organisations — from global multinationals and leading financial institutions to central government agencies and healthcare providers — delivering digital solutions that have positively impacted more than 60 million people. We operate across two core practices: Digital Services, where we design and build the digital capabilities organisations need to thrive in today's new reality, and Workday, where we deploy, optimise, and extend the power of Workday as one of the community's earliest and most decorated partners. As a Microsoft Solutions Partner, AWS Advanced Consulting Partner, Google Cloud Partner, and the only three-time partner in the Workday ecosystem, Kainos sits at the forefront of the technology landscape — and we intend to stay there.

We are technologists, designers, data scientists, cloud engineers, strategists, and Workday specialists united by a single ambition: to make people's lives better through technology. What makes Kainos people stand out — and clients tell us this time and again — is the combination of deep technical expertise and a genuine commitment to partnership. We lead from the front, tackle the most complex problems, and invest in building our clients' own capabilities so that every engagement leaves a lasting positive impact. Over half of our executive team started at Kainos as graduates, a testament to the life-changing careers built here. We find smart, motivated people, give them everything they need to become game-changers, and set them loose on the biggest challenges facing the world's biggest brands. Together, we don't just deliver projects — we change the way organisations work, for good.

We work across two complementary practices to help organisations build for the future. Through our Digital Services practice, we tackle the most difficult digital challenges end-to-end: from Digital Advisory and user-centred design to cloud and engineering, Data and AI, Microsoft AI Business Solutions, and managed services. We take a user-first approach, immersing ourselves in each client's operations to build solutions specific to their context and laying the foundations for continuous growth. Through our Workday practice, we introduce, embed, and amplify the power of Workday across organisations of every size and complexity. As the only three-time partner in the Workday ecosystem — a certified services partner, software partner, and Workday Extend partner — we deploy, test, audit, and optimise Workday with a depth of expertise that cannot be matched. We also develop our own Workday-native products, including Kainos Smart Test, Smart Audit, Smart Shield, and Employee Document Management, giving clients more from Workday with less cost, effort, and risk. Across both practices, we serve clients in financial services, insurance, payments, education, government, and healthcare and life sciences, operating across 18 countries with a one-team mentality that produces transformative results.

Everything we do at Kainos is driven by one mission: to make people's lives better through technology. We reimagine how organisations operate, creating new ways of working that improve experiences and lives — not just for the organisations we partner with, but for the millions of people those organisations serve. We are driven forwards by our ambition to maximise the impact we make today and the legacy we leave tomorrow. That means challenging ourselves, the organisations we partner with, and the communities we operate in to be more than ready for what comes next. Our work is not measured in lines of code or project milestones alone; it is measured in the lasting positive change we create for clients, colleagues, and the world at large. True transformation, for us, changes everything.

Our values are not words on a wall — they are the behaviours every person at Kainos actively demonstrates, from new recruits to the CEO. We look for better ways to do things, using imagination to find fresh solutions and turn innovation into effective change. As part of a united team, we share information, knowledge, and experience openly, consciously listening to others and keeping an open mind. We are determined to achieve our personal and team goals, overcoming obstacles to get the job done and taking pride in upholding the Kainos reputation. We are transparent in dealing with customers and colleagues — truthful in word and deed, and constructive when giving or receiving feedback. And we treat others how we would like to be treated, supporting, encouraging, and respecting everyone we work with. These values shape our culture, define how we show up for our clients, and are at the heart of what makes Kainos a truly special organisation.

Choosing a digital transformation partner is one of the most consequential decisions an organisation can make. We believe Kainos is that partner — and our clients' words bear that out. Our aim is simple: to have a lasting positive impact on every client, changing the way they work for the better. We lead from the front on every project, tackling the most complex problems with determination. We take time to really understand our clients' businesses, working in true partnership at every step and building our clients' own internal capabilities so that the value we create endures long after our engagement ends. With 39 years of innovation, strategic partnerships with Microsoft, AWS, Workday, and Google Cloud, and a track record spanning government, financial services, healthcare, and beyond, we combine proven expertise with a bold, forward-looking vision. We are a FTSE 250 company with the agility of a specialist: no boilerplate approaches, no off-the-shelf thinking — just strategies and solutions shaped by your unique requirements, delivered by people who genuinely care about the outcome.

Sustainability at Kainos is far more than giving back. We embrace the responsibility we have to leave a legacy on society, local communities, and the environment that we can all be proud of — one that endures beyond the work we deliver for our customers and shapes the world for future generations. We have aligned our commitments to five of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals, giving us a bold roadmap of coordinated actions with real impact on our people, our environment, our local communities, and the world at large. We have invested £10 million in education and development and set a 2030 target for carbon net zero. Climate action is embedded in our culture: we are taking accountability for our own carbon footprint across our offices, our product and service delivery, and the technology we use — and we are leading the charge for green software, designing and building applications that limit energy consumption and carbon emissions. We are also committed to achieving a 38% female workforce, embedding accessible design — targeting AA accessibility ratings across our digital projects — and widening access to IT careers through the Kainos Academy and partnerships with organisations such as Women Who Code.

We believe that being a great technology company means being a great neighbour. Kainos has invested £10 million in education and development, and our Kainos Academy is at the heart of our commitment to widening access to IT careers for young people and members of under-represented groups, equipping them with the digital skills required for the future of work. We invest in the communities where we operate not because it is expected of us, but because the wellbeing of our communities and the wellbeing of our business are inseparable. Our people regularly contribute their expertise, enthusiasm, and time to causes that matter — because for us, the measure of success is not only the impact we have on our clients, but the positive change we create in the world around us. We want to leave a legacy we can all be proud of.

Nurturing a global culture where everyone is uniquely valued, supported, and heard is at the heart of the big-thinking, world-changing work we do. We know that diverse organisations have happier staff and better performance — and we experience that truth every day. Encouraging diversity isn't just the right thing to do; it is the key to understanding and meeting our customers' needs more effectively. Our Global Diversity and Inclusion Council oversees a strategy built on four pillars: inclusive leadership, finding and developing diverse talent, building an inclusive workplace culture, and harnessing unique perspectives to drive innovation. We empower our people through dedicated Employee Network Groups. Xpression supports our LGBT+ colleagues and allies. Inspire champions gender equality and empowers women to reach their full potential in what remains a male-dominated industry. Voice creates and promotes initiatives to recruit and retain ethnically diverse colleagues. Our Neurodiversity network raises awareness and builds understanding to ensure neurodiverse colleagues can grow and thrive. We publish annual D&I reports and Gender Pay Gap reports openly, because being truly committed to an inclusive workplace means being open about how and why we are doing it.
