Think innovation. Think Sky, a FTSE TOP 30 and the UK’s favourite triple play provider– TV, broadband and telephony. Now in over 10 million households we entertain, excite and inspire customers with the combination of great content and great innovation. This is the driving force behind our growth as we strive to be the UK’s no. 1 choice in entertainment and communications.

Our people are critical to our success. Together they make Sky what it is today and what it will be tomorrow, whether in front of the camera, being the face of Sky inside our customer’s home or behind the scenes. We deliver some of the most diverse content and services on the planet built by our world class technology teams and we value the same diversity within our business. At Sky we believe in better and that starts by recruiting the best.

We want Sky to be a great place to work. Somewhere people can reach their potential, fostering a culture of opportunity that motivates people to aim high and giving them all the support and tools they need to succeed. Because we never forget that Sky is a choice, we put customers first and work hard to earn their trust. We make our products affordable so millions can join in. And we back it all up with a commitment to exceptional customer service.

Seeing the bigger picture is part and parcel of the way we do business. That’s why we’re committed to doing the right thing and playing our part in the communities where we live and work.

It’s our people that make Sky the UK and Ireland's leading entertainment company. That’s why we work hard to be an inclusive employer, so everyone at Sky can be their best
