Munich and Lisbon-founded digital consultancy much.Consulting has established its UK headquarters at 3 Hardman Square in Spinningfields, Manchester.
The expansion marks the company’s entry into the British market. The UK operation is led by UK managing director Caine Fearn.
The firm functions as a European gold partner for open-source business application suite Odoo. Its implementation model focuses on configuring standard Odoo software functions to align with client operations rather than creating custom coding, aiming to preserve system upgrade paths and lower operational expenses.
The consultancy currently employs over 100 consultants and engineers across its European locations.
Caine Fearn, UK managing director of much.Consulting, said: “UK managing directors and CFOs are paying premium prices for systems that still require their teams to manage operations manually. Our Spinningfields office brings the same implementation rigour we apply across Europe directly to British businesses, without the overhead of a large consultancy.”
The expansion into Manchester follows a broader trend of international tech consultancies setting up UK bases in the North West to access regional digital talent and enterprise clients. Foreign direct investment into Manchester’s technology sector saw a 15% increase in regional office setups over the previous financial year, driven primarily by enterprise software integrators.
