Fiddler & Pepper - So who are they?


The people behind fiddler & pepper are a great bunch of friendly professionals based in the North of Nottingham. In all, they have about 60 dedicated full-time members of staff and four business partners spread across three different office locations.

One of the fundamental principles in which fiddler & pepper were founded upon was that they wanted to be a fun and friendly place to work. Thus they don’t always take themselves all too seriously. With this in mind this is what they’re all about.

They believe if that each and every individual member of staff is happy and productive as a result that they will achieve better things and deliver great results and service for their customers and clients. This becomes a self fulfilling prophecy for them, where their happy clients warmly recommend their services.

Every year they invest a sensible and considered amount of time and money in developing the needs of their staff in order that they can improve a particular aspect of working with people. It’s good to nature this culture, and we also think it’s important to be able to see things from the perspective of our clients. Whilst we may be doing the same specialist work day in day out, to our clients this is usually a major and significant thing to them that needs to be approached accordingly.

They don’t claim to always get things perfect, but they are very forthcoming when things sometimes don’t go to plan, they do try to learn from the experience. It’s all too easy to become defensive and completely miss the original point of what is being said as well as passing by an opportunity to improve. Areas that get highlighted can be prevented from happening again in the future with other clients.

Fiddler and Pepper did I hear you say?


Here at what some few like to call us Fiddler and Pepper, we strive to deliver our work and services to the highest of standards and we don’t like to personally take ourselves all too seriously. 

We believe cultivating this fun, friendly and light attitude at our place of work significantly increases productivity in our offices and some of this unconventional magic even rubs off on our clients who love to work with us. 

They in turn pass on their positivity to the people they encounter throughout their day spreading great experiences to others far and wide. This also means we get recommendations sent our way. We’re the little playful breeze that likes to do well for people, which is great; we love having this effect.

It greatly amuses us that people often write to us as our name spelt Fiddler and Pepper, where as it’s actually Fidler and Pepper. There’s no double Ds in our name, though we have no doubt there are plenty of pairs of great double Ds in this world, we feel we can stand proud with our Ds alone and independent.

Allow me to explain.

Here’s a reasonably attractive looking Fiddler for our example.


Notice the particular unique subtleties, such as his bow; though don’t be mistaken at first sight for he is no archer! His bow is of a different kind. Look at the sleek glossy strung instrument he holds and presses to his jaw line, this is his master Fiddle. 

This Fiddle was probably crafted from the wood of a fallen Elven elder tree and varnished with the tears of a Unicorn from the looks of it! Look closer and see the trim, refinement and cut of his dark beard; he’s probably reciting a passionate ballad as he sings.

Whilst we have no doubt that these characteristics are all great for the industry of traditional folk and country music and allow him to look swoony, what we can be certain of is that he’s certainly no Fidler!

We hope this has now helped to clarify some of the ambiguity and shroud that can sometimes surround our name. So let it be known ladies and gentlemen, we’re proud of who we are and that we’re not Fiddler and Pepper! 

If that’s put you in the mood, here’s a great Fiddle song from Sharpe.
