Lindsay said, “When we say, ‘people are at the heart of what we do’, that’s not just lip service. It is the passion of our people that will ultimately deliver an outstanding experience for our clients.”

This, in turn, will see Six Degrees differentiate itself as the UK’s leading secure technology solutions provider. For me, that all comes from creating a truly inclusive environment where every individual can thrive. I am excited to continue to champion that from this role.”

CEO’s comments

Commenting on the appointment, Six Degrees CEO Simon Crawley-Trice said, “We truly are in unprecedented times. We are seeing a major shift towards hybrid working, demands for a different work-life balance, and significant mobility as people who were biding their time throughout the pandemic are now looking for career growth.” 

The war for talent is intensifying, and IT services will continue to be one of the most competitive industries. We are pleased to welcome Lindsay to the role of CPO; his deep HR expertise, drive for leading-edge practice and, above all, commitment to our people will put us on the best footing to attract and retain the prime talent we need.”
