About Noteworthy Support
What is Noteworthy Support?
Noteworthy Support — known in the Microsoft channel as the "Microsoft Partner Center Pros" — is a UK consultancy that helps Microsoft partners get the most out of the Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program. Founded in 2018 in close partnership with Microsoft UK by CEO Sian Herrington (formerly a PDM in Microsoft's Business Applications team), the company specialises in Partner Center operations, Co-Op funding, Solution Partner Designations, the Microsoft Commercial Marketplace, and Microsoft Commerce Incentive claims — the back-office plumbing that determines how visible a partner is to Microsoft sellers.
The flagship offering is the Microsoft Alliances-as-a-Service subscription, supplemented by Partner Center Healthcheck Reports, Marketplace Mastery training, and the Noteworthy Partner Programme for ongoing membership-led support.
Where will I work?
Noteworthy is a UK-headquartered consultancy operating across the Microsoft partner ecosystem. The team works closely with UK partners and the Microsoft UK leadership, with engagements typically delivered remotely through a mix of strategic workshops and ongoing operational support. The /job-board on the site lists external partner-community vacancies — internal Noteworthy roles are filled directly rather than through a public careers page.
What is the Noteworthy Support team like?
CEO Sian Herrington was named CRN Channel Leader EMEA at the 2025 CRN Channel Awards, and earlier won the 2023 National Business Women's Awards Gold for STEM Business Woman of the Year. Service Delivery Manager Jaime Lloyd was also a CRN finalist. The leadership team — Annie Clemo (Head of Partner Acquisition), Chris Johnston-Leigh (Head of Partner Success), Dasha Jilkova (Marketplace Practice Manager), Lily Parkinson (Business Manager), and board advisor Helen Wilson (Director of Business Management for Customer Success at Microsoft UK) — is structured around customer outcomes rather than traditional billable hours. Named customers include CloudGuard, Rimo3 and Intercity. Noteworthy was shortlisted as a 2025 Women in Tech Best Small Business Employer (Up to 50 Employees).
Work-Life Balance
Sian Herrington has publicly stated that Noteworthy has run a four-day working week since the company's inception in 2018, telling Computer Weekly the model has been a "game-changer" for the firm. She has framed it as "creating a culture that values efficiency, well-being and balance" and has committed to maintaining it permanently for staff. The company also actively encourages partners to adopt more inclusive working patterns including part-time and flexible arrangements.
Perks and Benefits
Noteworthy is a charity-active business: the team champions the #WWRD movement (100% of hoodie sales donated to the British Heart Foundation in memory of friend Rich Shipton) and the You Are Not Dead Yet (YANDY) foundation supporting The Christie cancer hospital through Pax8 VP Rob Pope. Team members work alongside Microsoft UK leadership and earn access to invite-only Microsoft executive events. Inclusive working patterns — part-time and flexible arrangements — are explicitly supported.
