What roles are on offer

Technology

What we do

Our Technology department goes above and beyond to deliver innovative IT solutions and support to colleagues across our business. Whether they’re providing frontline assistance, keeping equipment and systems updated, or implementing the latest tech, these teams make incredible things happen every day - and have a lot of fun along the way.

What sets our IT department apart? We’d rather train our people in new areas than outsource external service providers. Not only does this give us much more control of our IT output, it also opens up a world of opportunity for our people.

We’re continually investing in new tech to move our business forward - making our Technology department an incredibly exciting and challenging place to work. Join this collaborative, welcoming team and you’ll help us build on our strengths, develop new capabilities and create a better future for generations to come. In return, we’ll give you all the training and support you need to really make a splash.
