Ambitek, a 2010 underdog amid the recession, traded from a small Manchester room. Rapid growth led to a kitchen-office, marked by laughter and shared breaks. By July 2011, flourishing against economic challenges, Ambitek acquired its offices in September, paving the way for future expansion. A milestone on March 31, 2013, saw £1 million sales turnover, transitioning from a home kitchen to a three-story office, and from a team of 1 to 6, and 1 contractor to 50. In 2023, fueled by hard work, Ambitek extended to Business Bay, Dubai, showing dedication to global growth. Ambitek has always been ambitious and is a true underdog in every sense of the word. Launched in 2010 during the midst of the devastating global recession, we started trading from extremely humble beginnings - simply put, a small living room situated in Manchester, UK. Within months we had to add the kitchen to our office space due to hiring additional members of staff! To this day we still laugh at how we were climbing over each other to answer phones, accessing printers and how we had to take work breaks to play with our kids in the back yard once they’d get back from school. Working within the kitchen we did have the obvious benefit of being sat next to the kettle, so I’m sure you can imagine there was no shortage of brews! Fast forward to July 2011, against all odds and against a tough economy, Ambitek was doing well! We decided the time was right to acquire our own offices. In September 2011 we acquired the building outright, in doing so, we future proofed the business enabling us to hire future like-minded consultants who could grow our services even further. Our next milestone was the 31st March 2013, through hard work, dedication and commitment we had hit £1 million sales turnover. Within 3 years of trading we had gone from £0 to £1 million, from a home kitchen to a 3 storey office, from 1 staff to 6 staff, from 1 contractor to 50 contractors.
