Over 15+ years, Ideal has grown to be one of the UK’s leading technology partners, working with big names like IKEA, Pizza Express, Battersea Power Station, Co-op Live, 22 Bishopsgate, the tallest building in the City of London, Twickenham Stadium and many others along the way.
The core values that guide us
Pride
We take immense pride in our work and the positive impact it has on transforming workplaces, efficiency and profitability for our customers; not just in what we do, but how we do it.
Relationships
We believe in the power of strong relationships – within our team, with our customers and throughout the broader community. We aim to ensure everyone feels supported and empowered.
Ambition
Ambition drives us to push boundaries, dream big, and innovate fearlessly. We invest heavily in our people, our training, and our leadership and encourage a culture of learning and growth.
Join our incredible team
Ideal is a fast-paced technology company working with big clients and amazing spaces, like mega-retailer, IKEA, Co-op Live, Europe’s foremost indoor music venue, and 22 Bishopsgate, the tallest building in the City of London.
Our incredible team support one another to constantly drive innovation, embrace change and work towards bigger and better goals. Whether you’re considering an engineering, sales, professional services or administration role, you’ll find Ideal is an exciting place to work.
Progression for everyone
We want everyone to fulfil their potential, so we created the Ideal Academy, to help you grow, develop skills, and advance your career.
Through clear role progression pathways, tailored training plans and hands-on learning, the Academy will equip you with the knowledge and expertise you needed to get to the next level. With a strong support system and the opportunity to be mentored by others in the business, it’s a great way to build your confidence, while you achieve new career goals and drive innovation within the company.
Happiness is core to our work philosophy
Mo, our Founder and CEO, feels that work should be something you enjoy as well as something you have to do to pay the bills.
By listening to our employees via a quarterly Happiness poll and checking-in with our customers, we do our best to tackle any problems early and embrace opportunities to ensure we remain a brilliant place to work.
Over the last two years, our Happiness Index has averaged 8.5, well over the industry average.
