Did you know? Togetherness is part of the job

We’re in the business of bringing people together, and we believe the best colleague experiences combine meaningful work, connection and enjoyment.

Through our charity partnership with Marmalade Trust, we’ve raised more than £500,000 to help tackle loneliness, while creating opportunities for colleagues to build connections of their own. From family days and team challenges to volunteering, there are plenty of ways to get involved and make a difference.

Flexible working at HEINEKEN UK

There’s no one place to build a career at HEINEKEN UK. From our offices, breweries, cider plant and mill to around 2,400 pubs and more than 500 field-based and remote positions, our people are pioneering right across the UK.

That variety means there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to where or how we work. Location and working arrangements depend on the opportunity, so you’ll always find the relevant details in our job adverts, with your hiring manager on hand to tell you more.

Inclusion & Belonging at HEINEKEN UK

We believe our differences make us stronger, which is why we're creating a culture where everyone can be themselves, have a voice and find the support they need to pioneer and grow.

Our HEINEKEN UK colleague networks bring people together across generations, cultures and ethnicities, disability and neurodiversity, LGBTQIA+ communities, gender, and parents and carers. They create spaces to connect, share experiences and help shape a more inclusive workplace. We also support colleagues through initiatives including neurodiversity safe spaces, menopause support and workplace adjustments.

Mental health matters too. Our network of over 50 trained mental health champions provides a trusted listening ear, while our managers receive dedicated mental health training to help them recognise when someone may need support and have better conversations. Through Help@Hand, our award winning EAP app, colleagues and their eligible families can also access confidential mental health support, remote GP appointments, physiotherapy, and financial and legal guidance.

Belonging isn’t about asking everyone to fit in. It’s about creating support, connections and opportunities. Our colleagues tell us that culture comes through in their experience.

In our 2026 Great Place to Work® survey:

💚 90% are proud to tell others they work here.
💚 94% say people are treated fairly regardless of race.
💚 94% say people are treated fairly regardless of sexual orientation.
💚 93% felt welcomed when they joined.

They’re some of the things we’re most proud to hear, and they reflect the kind of workplace we’re continuing to build together.

HEINEKEN UK's mission, purpose and values

We're part of the world's pioneering beer company, creating legendary drinks, brands and experiences to delight consumers. Our purpose is to brew the Joy of True Togetherness to inspire a better world.

We're building a workplace where 2,000 colleagues feel genuinely included, trusted and supported to do the best work of their lives. That's what brings the best outcomes for us all.

Our pioneering spirit is what keeps us moving forward. We dream big, challenge the status quo and keep learning and adapting.

And we do it guided by our values, which shape how we work, the decisions we make and the culture we create together:

Passion for customers and consumers

We are brand builders who truly understand what our consumers want and need. We brew the finest quality beers and beverages to serve our customers in the best possible way... to win together.

Courage to dream and pioneer

Born in Amsterdam and raised by the world, we set bold ambitions and challenge the status quo with imagination, creativity, and pragmatism to deliver results and grow sustainably.

Care for people and planet

People are at the heart of our business. We are guided by our green hearts. We can only thrive if all our people, communities, and the planet thrive.

Enjoyment of life

We believe that sharing joyful moments together is what truly matters. Nothing beats the simple pleasure of a beer, a conversation, and laughter with friends.
