Why work for us?

At Symatrix our vision is to unlock the endless possibilities of Oracle Cloud and ERP Financials & HCM / Payroll.

Now an IBM Company, we were founded in 2000 with the specific focus of providing services and expertise to organisations looking to implement and leverage Oracle HCM. We have come a long way since then. Today we believe that all customers should be able to make their business applications work harder for them and provide the returns and the benefits they expected. Everything we do supports this belief. We provide Consulting as well as end-to-end managed services for HCM and ERP on premise or in the Cloud - from Applications Support and Testing as a Service through to Managed Payroll and Process Improvement services, not to mention our award-winning Oracle Practice! In fact, because we truly listen, our services have all developed from Customer demand.

After the introduction of Oracle Cloud, we added Environment Management and Testing-as-a-Service to our kit bag to complement our application support and change services. Our Consulting services have evolved to support Cloud and we have retained our award-winning on-premises expertise. We also created an exciting suite of services to help our Customers Manage and improve their processes, which really help to move our Customers onwards; from merely “adopting Cloud” to “embracing Cloud”.

We are delighted to be able to say that we’re an ISO27001, BACS and Cyber Essentials accredited business but there are many reasons that we’re proud of what we’ve achieved over the years.
