Hear from our people

Sarah
Graduate
I find Sky to be a really inclusive and supportive company. I can literally ask anyone for help. And I had various members reaching out to me just asking how I was doing if I just wanted to chat. And I think that was really, really nice.
Matthew
Intern
I’ve really enjoyed using the workspaces. It's got excellent food outlets and also a gym. So I really think Sky gives its workers a really excellent platform to do their best work. Been something I've really looked forward to when working here at Sky.
Rushna

So I think Sky's value of being collaborative and inclusive is like a really important value that you can see in the people, the teams and the whole culture at Sky. And that's something I'm really passionate about and something I try to incorporate into my day-to-day life as well.
