Highgate IT Solutions was founded by Stuart Marginson in 2010 with one clear ambition: to build an IT services business where people genuinely come first. That founding philosophy has shaped every decision since.

Our portfolio spans the full technology stack – cloud, cyber security, networking, managed services, datacentre, workspace, lifecycle, and telecoms – making Highgate a genuine one-stop shop for your IT requirements. More importantly, we’re entirely vendor-agnostic. That means every recommendation we make is driven by what’s right for your business, not by vendor incentives or margin targets. You get the best solution for your needs, from a partner you can trust.
Every customer is paired with a dedicated account director who becomes an extension of your team. They take the time to understand your business, your pain points, and your goals – and they act as your trusted advisor for the long term. Because we’re built for agility rather than bureaucracy, we respond quickly, adapt to your needs, and deliver results without unnecessary delays. It’s the kind of relationship that makes IT feel less like a headache and more like a competitive advantage.
Doing business responsibly isn’t a box-ticking exercise. We’re certified Carbon Neutral Plus, an Ambassador organisation for Techies Go Green, and proud to have achieved a 50/50 gender split across the business at a time when women represent just 24% of roles in the UK tech industry. We believe that how a company operates matters – for our people, our clients, and the planet.
We believe that happy employees create the foundation for exceptional customer experiences. We prioritise employee wellbeing through key initiatives, fostering a workplace where our team can thrive and enjoy a work life balance. By creating an environment that they are proud to be part of, we empower them to deliver the best for our customers.
We work with leading technology vendors including Microsoft, Cisco, and HPE, alongside a broad portfolio of specialist partners, to ensure our clients always get the best-fit solution.
Trusted by over 2,500 UK businesses across financial services, education, legal, and the public sector.
Over the last few years, Highgate has been committed to continuous improvement and the implementation of new initiatives to enhance employee wellbeing, because we believe our people are our most important asset – and that this translates directly into the quality of service our clients receive. When people genuinely enjoy their work, it shows.
This year, we were proud to become Great Place to Work certified, an independent accreditation that confirms we're moving in the right direction. Here are some highlights from our employee feedback:
