Our culture

Great software. Great lifestyle.

We’re no ordinary software development business. In fact, we think we’re pretty unique.

At Headforwards you’ll find cutting-edge projects in a truly agile environment, a flat structure with no egos, and a friendly team environment where everyone’s equal.

Working here gives you the chance to tackle new challenges and build your skills, alongside a team of experts who are always hungry to explore new technologies and learn new things.

Most of all, it’s a place where you and your family can enjoy a fantastic lifestyle and quality of life – because joining us isn’t just a career choice, it’s a life choice.

At Headforwards there are people from all walks of life, culture and religion. And it is especially good being a female developer.

Happy people do great work.

Join Headforwards and you’ll discover a very different technology business: a fun atmosphere with flexible hours, a strong team spirit, and a place that genuinely cares about your - and your family’s - wellbeing.

All of this combines to create an environment where work is enjoyable, not stressful. And outside of work, you’re in Cornwall – so there’s a fantastic lifestyle to enjoy.

Headforwards’ directors talk to employees on a regular basis to check if any improvements can be made, get any suggestions they have for the company, or simply to offer general support.

The more you know

Headforwards’ people never stop learning. Aside from being able to draw on a wealth of knowledge in the office, employees have access to a wide range of training resources, conferences, and regular sessions on specific topics.

It’s an important part of life at the company because the more knowledge and experience the team develops, the better it can serve its clients.

Leadership not management.

We might be growing fast, but there’s no ‘us and them’ here. Our business model is flat and fluid, which means everyone is on an equal footing and good ideas are recognised wherever they come from.

This means your career can really go places, because our leaders are all around you. And they’re great at spotting talented people who always give their all.

In addition to wide-ranging learning resources, we also have the opportunity to attend industry conferences like Agile on the Beach. It’s just another way we constantly improve our combined knowledge to benefit our clients.

COVID-19

The health of our team along with business continuity are our priorities at this time. Our teams are now working from home and continuing with projects as normal.

All phones and emails are being monitored as usual so if you have an enquiry or any questions, please get in touch.
