This month marks an extraordinary milestone: our 10th anniversary. What began as a vision in 2015 to build a company where we enjoy our work and those we work with, continually learn, and make a positive impact through well-crafted software solutions has evolved into something far beyond what we imagined.
As our founder, Faith Rees, reflected: "Sometimes 10 years feel like a lifetime, and other days it's like it was only yesterday. I am so grateful for how far we have come and what we have achieved, and for all of you for leaning into the journey."
Building Something Special Together
Ten years ago, Faith dared to take a well-thought-out idea and turn it into something remarkable. She created SixPivot not just as a company, but as a place to belong, where people are supported, valued, and trusted to thrive.
Long before remote work became the norm, Faith built SixPivot around flexibility, trust, and care for people, proving that a company can succeed, be recognised and grow leaders while putting people at the centre.
