HOW WE DO IT

There is no “I” in team but there is certainly one in Operations. Powering the engine that makes Harnham run like clockwork, are skilled individuals working across several different departments. Our departments work closely together. They are vital to keep infrastructure and systems running smoothly, as well as looking at the bigger picture in order to measure overall performance.
This has been instrumental in our ability to scale so quickly. And our commitment to continued growth is deeply rooted in the belief that creating exciting new roles in Operations, both in the UK and across the globe, is an essential part of this plan.
