“From day one I have been trusted with meaningful work across a variety of projects, making me feel like a valued member of not just my team, but the company. I have been able to develop the skills required for my role through on the job learning as well as the plethora of personal development opportunities on offer. It sounds cliché, but it really is the people at VMO2 that make it such a great place to work. I felt at home here instantly, and there is a real tight-knit community amongst the interns and grads.”- George Cadman, Technology Intern Who we are

With inclusivity at our hearts, we’re 100% committed to having a workforce that represents every part of our society, so we’re keen to hear from candidates of all backgrounds and circumstances. The only barrier to applying would be if you didn’t have the right to work in the UK and were unable to obtain it without our support. The must haves

You must have a predicted 2:1 or above in a STEM or IT-related subject area. We’re particularly interested in individuals from subjects such as Data, Automation & Cloud, Computing and Engineering. The other stuff we are looking for

…and loads more! Next steps

If we feel like a place where you can belong, we'd love to learn more about you as a person and your experience to date. Once you've submitted an application the next steps of the process, if successful, are likely to include an online test, a telephone interview, a coaching call and an assessment centre. When you apply, you'll be asked about any adjustments you might need to support the recruitment process. Let us know, and we'll be sure to discuss it with you. Please note: Applications will be reviewed, and interviews conducted throughout the duration of this advert, therefore we may bring the closing date forward. We encourage all interested applicants to apply as soon as possible. If you’re offered a job with us, it will be conditional, based on the passing of background checks. All roles require a criminal record check and some roles need a financial probity check. Your recruiter can provide you with more information if needed.
