About Hippo
At Hippo, we design for humans and build for intelligence. We do this by designing and delivering AI-enabled digital services where human insight, data, and engineering work as one. As a digital services partner genuinely invested in helping our clients thrive as modern organisations, our delivery methodology is truly agile. From concept to reality, we support innovation and continuous improvement to create systems that learn, adapt, and achieve measurable impact. Our work for the NHS, BBC, Virgin, DWP, Ministry of Justice and the wider UK public and private sectors has led to transformational results for millions of citizens every day. We firmly believe that technology should serve humanity, not the other way around. Digital services should work intuitively for people and intelligently behind the scenes. Because complex problems require a service design approach, we bring together strategy, research, design, data, and engineering as one cohesive system. We embed artificial intelligence from the start, rather than as an afterthought, ensuring we understand how users behave and that our solutions work for them in the real world Intelligence, at Hippo, means human judgement amplified by data and AI. We ensure AI is grounded in strong data foundations, responsible design, and measurable outcomes. This powerful combination delivers bespoke digital capabilities that perform at scale and make a positive, meaningful impact on organisations and society, without ever losing sight of the human experience. We're on a mission to create inclusive digital services that achieve business outcomes and benefit everyone. From essential healthcare to staying connected online, we put the user's needs first. With a human-first approach, we solve real problems using the intelligent application of technology. We are headquartered in Leeds and located across the UK in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol and Glasgow.
