Leeds job management software firm BigChange celebrates 10 years with record six months

Its software now provides access to customer relationship management (CRM), job scheduling, an app for engineers and technicians, financial management, vehicle tracking, business analytics and more to firms across the world, all from one platform.

In 2021, Great Hill Partners, the private equity firm behind Wayfair, ZoomInfo and Reward Gateway, invested "significant capital” to drive further growth and innovation at BigChange, says the company.

A decade on, the team has welcomed 200 new customers in the last six months, along with around £19m of contract wins - both record-breaking numbers for the business, when compared to other half year periods.

Richard Warley, CEO of BigChange, said: “We couldn’t be happier to be celebrating 10 years of BigChange this month, and what better way to do with a record-breaking six months. The team has already achieved so much in 2023, with much more to come.

“BigChange’s customers are the backbone of the UK economy. They are a group of hard driving entrepreneurs and professionals that keep the country running through their essential work across plumbing, building maintenance, electrical contracting, utilities and drainage works.

"We are 100 per cent focused on helping them reach their business goals by generating more revenue, improving both their businesses performance and their sustainability and by reducing costs through the easy to use software solution that we provide.

"Our customers’ needs are ever-evolving, which is why we’re continuing to accelerate the development of our technology all the time.”

Over the course of the decade, the provider says, it has scheduled more than 58m jobs using its software.
