The Story

We keep on rocking the market, one Black Belt at the time.

When our founder Sameli Mäenpää was CDO at OP Financial Group, one challenge became clear: finding senior IT experts was difficult and expensive. At its peak, Sameli was managing a list of 900 consultants. That’s why Black Belt Consulting was born—to offer companies easy access to top-tier talent through a transparent, cost-effective model. By combining fair compensation, personal service, and direct communication, we ensure both our clients and experts to get the best experience.

At Black Belt Consulting, we are redefining IT consultancy and have created a place where expertise thrives and our clients succeed. Our unique model ensures we deliver, even in the toughest times. We have changed the rules of traditional IT consultancy and want to keep on rocking the market, one Black Belt at the time!
