Solar provides communications technology for more than 1,700 customers across a variety of markets, aiming to improve their communication channels, operational effectiveness and reduce their costs with a dedicated customer focus throughout. Established in 1988, the company today has offices in London, Harlow, Chippenham and Manchester. It has been featured in the Sunday Times Tech Track 100, Deloitte's Technology Fast 500 and the London Stock Exchange's ‘1000 Companies to Inspire Britain' Solar's core values, which sit at the centre of their work and culture, are to go beyond the call, lead the way, take personal responsibility and do the right thing. The employees that demonstrate commitment to these values - dubbed ‘Solar Citizens' - are nominated and voted for by their peers every quarter, with the winner receiving a prize from the CEO. Solar is led by John Whitty, who walks the floor in every office and ensure he knows employees' names, roles and something about their family or interests.
