Who we are
Our shareholders and investment partners have recently announced the creation of a new fibre joint venture, which aims to provide up to 7 million premises with a new wholesale full fibre network. This incredible move represents our significant commitment to the UK and a boost to the nation's digital economy at a crucial time.
This is going to be HUGE! The partnership will initially roll out fibre to 5 million homes not currently served by Virgin Media O2's network by 2026, with the opportunity to expand to an additional 2 million homes. This new fibre venture, alongside VMO2's existing network, will offer greater wholesale choice to other operators across the country.
This is a hybrid home/office role, with a requirement to travel to and from various office locations for team collaboration days and meetings. Therefore you must be open to travel as and when required.

As you're already a valued member of the Virgin Media or O2 crew, you'll know lots about the amazing stuff we do to take care of our people. As we're prioritising our amazing internal talent, this role is only eligible for internal applicants or applications from our contingent workforce. We can chat to you one on one about how your overall benefits may change, if you're successful.
Next steps
If you think you've got what it takes to make a move, we'd love to hear from you. It's important that you take the time to submit a formal application via Workday. Once you've submitted an application the next steps of the process, if successful, are likely to include a two part interview process with the hiring panel. 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.
