Our story

From an office in Derby to locations nationwide. From three people to a workforce of over 1000. This is our story…

Trusted expertise in information technology

We were geeks before it was cool. Back in 2004, we launched our business with three team members from our Derby office with a simple aim – deliver powerful technology and IT solutions to customers with exceptional service. Years later, our workforce has vastly expanded and we’ve opened new sites and data centres all over the country.

Our expertise in technology has seen our portfolio of solutions evolve for organisations of all shapes and sizes, but even with our progress, expansion and growth, we’re proud to have stuck by our principles – providing our customers with the tools to make change happen across the world.

Meet Andrew Gilbert, our founder and president

Change is at the heart of our story. Our team will work with your organisation to make a real, tangible difference to your people, whatever your industry, size or goals. We want to know what makes your business special, what drives you, so we can use our knowledge of technology and vast experience  to deliver the outcomes you need. We do that by putting your needs first, to supply change that means something, on your terms.

We think you’ll feel the difference working with Node4 and we look forward to delivering change that matters, to you.
