The company supports 4,400 customers in over 80 countries to increase productivity, profitability and manage their workforce effectively.
Investment in technology
In 2016, we invested over £20m in Mitrefinch and since then we’ve supported the management team to build out the company’s software capabilities from a largely on-premise product to a suite of market leading cloud-based solutions generating recurring SaaS revenues.
International expansion
Mitrefinch extended its international presence through both organic and acquisitive growth, including the strategic purchase of US-based Advance Systems America. The business has increased international sales to account for 44 per cent of turnover in the current financial year with established operations in Ireland, the US, Canada and Australia.
