- As well as our annual team development activities you’ll be able to spend your own personal development budget to upskill and move towards your career goals.
- Create a personalised plan for working that suits when you work best. We want you to stay well and feel supported in balancing your priorities at home with your work.
- We’re situated right between Bury Mead Park and Stevenage Old Town so whether you fancy some fresh air and a walk or a break in an independent coffee shop it’s on our doorstep. It’s also easy to get to us by car and trains to Kings Cross can take as little as 23 minutes.
- Before your first day, you’ll get the chance to choose a laptop to suit the kind of work you do and have up to £100 to personalise your workspace to help make you feel at home.
- We are always looking for creative thinkers to help us continue to innovate. We’re very proud of our culture of supporting and nurturing ideas.
We're always looking for great people!
