About John Rose

I’m proud to work at Sumillion, where we prove that IT can be both innovative and sustainable. For me, it’s not just about technology — it’s about the impact behind it. Through our Green Partnerships, we’ve shown how sustainable IT can strengthen customer businesses while funding projects that change lives. From planting trees and supporting schools, to building water wells in Ghana that now serve over people, the connection between IT and real-world outcomes has never been stronger. Visiting Ghana and seeing the wells, libraries, and education projects first-hand was a turning point — a reminder that every customer decision can ripple out to entire communities. Those moments make the work personal, and they’re why we’ve structured Sumillion around delivering positive impact alongside IT solutions. We’ve been recognised as the UK’s No.1 Best Place to Work, won awards for sustainability and wellbeing, and donated 10% of profits every year to causes in the UK and abroad. But the real measure of success is the lives improved and the partnerships deepened through this approach. I believe growth comes from stepping outside the comfort zone, doing things differently, and building a business that leads with values. That’s what drives me — and it’s what makes Sumillion different.
