We're HappyWired
A team of thinkers, makers and doers delivering world-class Microsoft Cloud solutions.
Who We Are & Why It Matters
Founded in 2016 by Kevin Rowland, Craig Blowfield, and Simon Wright, HappyWired was built on one belief: that world-class digital transformation begins with creating an exceptional place to work.
As a Microsoft Cloud consultancy UK, we're proudly based in Chesterfield, Derbyshire—intentionally supporting regional economic growth. Our Apprentice and Graduate Scheme is a stepping stone from university to industry, especially for students from leading tech-focused institutions like Sheffield Hallam. We provide real experience, mentorship, and a nurturing environment for young professionals to build confidence, capability, and meaningful careers in tech.
Beyond technical delivery, we're committed to digital inclusion, sustainability, and progressive workplace policies. Our culture fosters innovation, trust, and collaboration—where people grow and make a real impact.
What We Stand For
Putting People First - We support people to do their best work—not through micromanagement, but by investing in careers, wellbeing, and growth. From open business reviews to development workshops, everyone’s part of the journey.
Partnership Over Profit - We build partnerships—not projects. Through trust, transparency, and genuine care, we help clients solve real problems and achieve long-term success.
Excellence Without Ego - Our expertise spans Microsoft Power Platform, Dynamics 365, and Azure. We blend structure with agility to deliver results that matter—without the ego.

What We Do
As a trusted digital innovation partner, we help businesses unlock value through:
Business Applications & Automation - Low-code development with Power Platform and Dynamics 365 to drive productivity.
Content & Collaboration - Solving collaboration and content governance with modern Microsoft 365 solutions.
Cloud Integration Services - Seamless data flow across Power Platform, Microsoft 365, Azure, and Dynamics—removing silos and improving agility.

Our Ethos
At HappyWired, we believe in keeping things simple, honest, and impactful.
We’re not just building solutions - we’re building relationships. Whether it’s our clients or our team, we put people first. Always.
- That’s why we invest in their careers, wellbeing and personal development. It’s why we hold quarterly business reviews where the whole team sees how we’re doing, where we’re going, and how they fit into the bigger picture.
- We don’t do micromanagement. We do trust, autonomy, and support. We’ve built a workplace where people enjoy coming to work - and we’ve got the staff retention to prove it.
- If it’s not in the client’s best interest, we won’t do it. Simple as that.
- We ask the right questions, we challenge assumptions, and we care about outcomes - not just deadlines.
- Our delivery approach is structured, but flexible. We use Agile methodologies and Azure DevOps to keep things moving, visible, and aligned to outcomes.
- And behind every successful delivery is a team that’s united, informed, and pushing in the same direction.
We’d love to hear from you.
