Our journey
“I was really impressed by how engaged and genuinely lovely everyone was throughout the interview process; it's clear that Dext is an established business with a great culture. I’m excited about the opportunity to lead a team and help sharpen the brand, especially as Dext grows stronger following the recent Iris acquisition. It feels like a truly dynamic time to be part of the company.”

Our offices
UK
Has been our home and global head office since 2010. It has grown into a hub for over 150 talented team members. While our GTM team focuses on the UK and Ireland, our central functions, which have a global reach - including leadership, operations, and strategy - are also based here.
Driven by purpose:
Why we do what we do
At Dext, we’ve always known that admin is more than just a nuisance – it’s a tax on ambition. It drains talent, suffocates momentum, and holds businesses back.
But we believe that when we eliminate the busywork, we unlock something bigger:
Advisors as architects of success
Bookkeepers as the backbone of business clarity
Entrepreneurs free to focus on their vision
This video captures exactly why we do what we do.
It’s bold, honest, and a rallying cry for every professional trying to move faster, think bigger, and make more impact.
What’s your bigger thing and how can Dext help you achieve it?
#BuiltForBiggerThings
I was genuinely excited when I was approached about the role at Dext. I already knew Dext to be the market leader in its field, but I hadn’t truly appreciated the depth of its commitment to listening to customer feedback and using it to build incredible products.
Since joining, I’ve felt more welcome here than anywhere I’ve ever worked. Everyone leans in to support not only each other but also our customers — there’s a real sense of shared purpose.
What’s impressed me most is the agility of the business. In many companies, agility can be a way to mask constant change, but at Dext it’s different. I feel empowered to make decisions and to call on others to help drive positive change. That kind of trust and collaboration is rare — and it’s what makes this place special.

Our values
Be brave
Voice your ideas; challenge the status quo. And do so now, not later. Nobody walks on by or avoids the difficult conversation. We are brave enough to own problems and step up to be accountable for the outcome. We have the courage to make a difference, seeing a solution through to the end. You only fail by not doing.
Be exceptional
We set high standards for ourselves. We take pride in our work and in understanding the business and our customers. Every detail matters. We put truly great products into the hands of our customers. We always aim to be exceptional at what we do.
Be together
We are one team. There is no such thing as individual success without the support of a team. We work together: we may agree, we may disagree, but we always commit to a way forward because we trust and listen to one another. We are better together.

I joined Dext for its fast and pragmatic decision-making process - everybody has a deep care for impact and no nonsense approach.
This reflects in Dext’s ability to provide a client-centric and market-leading technology - with AI innovation at its core and the right processes to improve day by day.
