About Us
We're
Noteworthy
Female-Led. 4-Day Working Week. Award Winners.
“20 years from now, the only people who will remember that you worked late are your kids.”
“Work-Life Balance” is more than just a mindset at Noteworthy. As a Gold-Accredited 4 Day Working Week organisation, we are huge believers in totally flexible working.
We advocate for those who need a flexible work arrangement to accommodate childcare, caring for others, hobbies, passions, or simply preferences!
We know where our contribution is needed.
Noteworthy Support has curated a community of Microsoft Partners with an inclusive approach to company culture. We are keen to support any partners who are curious about offering more inclusive working patterns to employees that are highly skilled but not suited to a traditional full-time role. Our CEO is available to partners who would like to talk about fostering a more inclusive attitude towards part time or flexible working.
Analytical
Noteworthy works quickly to build information on your identity as a partner and reconciles that against what Partner Center is reflecting back to Microsoft.
Insightful
Working closely alongside Microsoft, Noteworthy are able to disseminate information through the community ensuring that our partners are clued up on the latest changes and announcements.
Strategic
Once we get to know you, Noteworthy will proactively seek ways to improve your Microsoft relationship and accelerate the ROI of your partner benefits.
From industry alignment to workload specific IP, we can help you build a business plan for Microsoft activity.
Responsive
We cherish our relationship but understand when it reaches its natural conclusion and it makes sense for you to part from us until you need us again.
We are committed to providing guidance only for as long as it is strategically valuable, and the terms of our partner contracts reflect that.
