The culture at Six Degrees is one of honesty, integrity and a commitment to the highest levels of customer service.

We are a team of experienced, creative and ambitious consultants who won't stop until we've delivered the results that make a difference to your business. We value long-term partnerships with our clients and with our employees. Many of our clients have been using us for ten years or more, and our staff turnover is far below the industry average. That means that clients get to work with the same people, and don't need to spend time 're-briefing' new team members.
