At IQ-EQ, we provide people-first, technology-powered services. We invest in technology to meet our clients’ needs today and into the future – whether that means seamlessly integrating leading third-party software or developing a market-defining proprietary platform to deliver exactly what our clients are looking for. 

We recognise the importance of quality data and its ability to make or break a technological solution, which is why we’ve developed a comprehensive data services offering underpinned by Snowflake. A best-in-class cloud-based platform, Snowflake allows us to collaborate with clients to store and analyse large volumes of their data. 

With this, we know that keeping our clients’ data and our systems safe is vital. We have dedicated in-house cyber experts who operate an Information Security Management System to maintain the confidentiality, integrity and availability of both our clients’ data and our own. Meanwhile, our next-generation, ISO-certified data centres set the standard in secure, high-availability hosting solutions.  

And with dedicated in-house Innovation and AI teams, we’re always exploring new, better ways to operate that will make our people’s lives easier while delivering more effectively for our clients.  

Sustainability isn’t simply a key tenet of our strategy; it’s embedded in our DNA, informing every decision we make and shaping our future as an organisation. This ‘sustainability thinking’ is central to our success, fostering long-term value creation as we ask ourselves how each decision will impact our business, our people, our clients and our communities – not just today, but in the years to come. 

We’ve built our sustainability framework around three core pillars: people, planet and strong governance. Through these pillars we maintain an unwavering commitment to the principles of transparency, accountability, fairness and authenticity across a wide range of initiatives. Our efforts are aligned with leading international sustainability frameworks and bolstered by carefully selected partnerships and recognised industry accreditations. And we continue to improve our efforts and impact year on year, as evidenced by our detailed annual Sustainability Report.

IQ-EQ 

Our brand identity comes from our strong belief that valuing both intellectual and emotional intelligence (IQ and EQ) is essential for our people, our clients and our business. The name ‘IQ-EQ’ expresses exactly who we are and how we like to operate. 

IQ

IQ enables us to respond to mental challenges. It empowers us with deductive logic. It gives us the ability to understand complex information and provide insightful solutions. It helps us identify the challenge and plan how to tackle it. Intellectual intelligence generates the solution.

EQ

EQ gives us the ability to engage on a personal level. It helps us listen and create connections. It enables us to see the challenges that lie behind the challenge. It gives us insight into how to relate to another person so trust develops. It allows us to balance the professional with the personal. Emotional intelligence brings out the best in people.
