Why work for us?
Our people come from a wide range of professional and academic backgrounds. We believe this diversity of experience strengthens our thinking and helps us deliver better outcomes for our clients.
Actica consultants are motivated, enjoy taking on responsibility early, and are comfortable stepping into new challenges. Development happens through hands-on project experience supported by structured training, coaching and knowledge‑sharing across teams.
As we continue to grow, there are always opportunities to learn new skills, explore different areas of consulting and shape your own career path. You’ll work with colleagues who take pride in their work, support one another and value different ways of thinking.
What do we look for?
Beyond specific technical or business skills, we look for people who:
Communicate clearly and confidently.
Can build strong relationships with clients and colleagues.
Approach complex problems in a structured, thoughtful way.
Enjoy working as part of a team and contributing to shared success.
These qualities underpin our reputation as a trusted provider of pragmatic, high‑quality solutions to complex technical and business needs.

Diversity.
At Actica, we believe that people do their best work when they feel respected, included and able to bring their whole selves to work. An important part of our culture is our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs). These are employee‑led communities that create space for connection, discussion and support.
Current Groups
Women’s Network
LGBTQ+ Network
Neurodiversity Network
What ERGs Offer
Safe, supportive spaces to share lived experiences.
Peer networks and informal mentoring.
Opportunities for learning through workshops and awareness sessions.
Ways to get involved in initiatives that matter to our people.
Everyone is welcome to join or support an ERG or even start a new one.
Community Outreach
We’re proud to support initiatives that promote social mobility and widen access to careers in technology.
One example is upReach, a charity that helps students from less advantaged backgrounds to achieve their full potential and access high‑quality graduate opportunities.
What is it like to be an Actica Consultant?
Life as a consultant at Actica is varied and rewarding. Our main office is in Guildford, with additional hubs in central London, Swindon and Cheltenham, and colleagues based across all parts of the UK.
We use a hybrid working model that balances the needs of our clients, our teams and individual circumstances. Most projects require some time on client sites, with the remainder of the working week spent in one of our offices, working from home, or a mix of the two. As a company trusted to deliver nationally critical programmes by the UK Public Sector, it’s important that we are where our clients need us to be, but we always aim to take a pragmatic, supportive approach to finding the right balance of working arrangements.
All Actica Consulting employees must hold or be willing to undergo the process to obtain UK Government security clearance (minimum SC level). Further information can be found here.
Wellbeing.
Supporting wellbeing is fundamental to creating a sustainable working culture. We want our people to feel empowered, trusted and able to maintain a healthy work–life balance.
We encourage time to recharge, provide opportunities for continuous development, and create an environment where everyone feels valued and able to thrive.
The support we provide.
Every member of staff is assigned a Performance and Development Manager who coordinates structured appraisals on a regular basis and agrees development activities with the member of staff. In addition, staff are also offered a mentor who’s there to provide informal support and advice.
Our Values.
At our core are four key values that guide everything we do.
Success for us isn’t just about delivery, how we deliver is just as important. This is where our values come into play. They inform our behaviour.
Excellence.
Trust.
Partnership.
Client Focus.
