Littlefish: expanding service offering

Founded in 2003, Littlefish provides a comprehensive range of managed IT, cyber security, cloud and IT consultancy services to over 200 customers across both the private and public sectors.

It has built a leading position in the market through a combination of high-quality service delivery, operational automation, and an organisational structure that enables the business to outcompete the larger, traditional outsourcers.

A minority investment to accelerate growth

In 2019 the business secured a minority investment from LDC to accelerate their growth strategy through investment in new products and services, and in particular expanding its cyber security service offering.

During a three-year partnership with the business, LDC helped Littlefish to almost double revenues from £18.6m to £36.4m in its 2021 financial year.

Welcoming more people into Littlefish

Supported by LDC, Littlefish delivered on an ambitious recruitment programme to more than double its workforce to over 450 people across its Nottingham, Sheffield and London offices. Littlefish also opened its new offices in Sheffield and continued to invest in its people and culture, earning the company 1 Star accreditation in the Sunday Times Best Companies to Work For list in 2020.
