Welcome to amazing
Helping everyone enjoy amazing technology is at the heart of what we do. Whether we sell it, deliver it, install it, or fix it, our colleagues are part of a much bigger picture. As the best-known retailer in tech, we’re proud of the service our customers receive, whether it’s online, in-store or in their homes. And it’s all down to our team working together to create amazing moments.
We offer flexibility, support, and bags of opportunity in an amazing team that really cares about our customers, our colleagues and their futures.
Our people
We know our people – the ones who sell, the ones who serve, the ones who support – are the secret to our success. Our capable and committed colleagues make amazing happen for our millions of customers, time and time again. That’s why everything we do is so they can thrive, like introducing hybrid working for suitable roles or shaping an inclusive culture where everyone belongs. Put simply, we’re creating a clearer, simpler place to work, where all our colleagues have the support they need to perform at their best.
Here’s how we look forward together as capable and committed colleagues:
- We will build highly engaged, high performing teams, with the best talent.
- We will work as one business, that’s flexible and affordable.
- We will live our vision and values, in a great place to work.
Our culture and values
Our team of 25,000 colleagues is what makes us who we are. And we’re all united by one passion: helping everyone enjoy amazing technology. From our Corporate teams and distribution centres, to stores across the country, we all work together to bring our vision to life.
Our three values are ‘We put customers first’, ‘We win together’, and ‘We own it’. These values help unite us and reflect what we love about working here. They’re simple and straightforward, so we naturally find ourselves living them every day.
We take the wellbeing of our colleagues seriously. From physical and financial health support to mental health support where we have skilled up 1,000 colleagues to become Mental Health First Aiders and Mental Health Champions, we’re here for them on every level because we’re only at our best when they are too.
Inclusion at Currys
Being an inclusive company where everyone feels they belong and can be at their best, and where diversity is seen as a strength, plays a fundamental role in Currys’ business success.
We’re 25,000+ colleagues from different backgrounds, experiences, ethnicities, disabilities, sexualities and genders. Every voice has a space at our table, and we encourage colleagues to engage with our diversity networks and forums to keep important conversations moving in the right direction.
Throughout our business, inclusion and diversity is championed, shaped and driven by our Leadership Inclusion Forum, which meets regularly to discuss ways to take action and shape change.
We celebrate diversity and promote inclusion by ensuring all colleagues understand, live and breathe our commitment to Dignity at Work through our policies and training, supported by our annual Inclusion and Belonging Survey to help measure how we are doing.
We realise the importance of keeping up to date with external best practice and have invested in partnerships to support us.
- We are a founding member of Diversity in Retail, whose mission is to support companies across the retail industry to create diverse and inclusive environments and positively impact 1 million employees globally by 2025,
- As a signatory of the Business in The Community Race at Work Charter we are committed to making progress against our ambition to promote, support and drive Race Equality at Currys.
- As a Level 2 Disability Confident Employer, we're active members of the Business Disability Forum.
- We’re focused on driving gender equality, partnering with everywoman to provide resources to support our female colleagues. And we were proud to have been recognised by Retail Week in 2022 as one of the most improved FTSE250 companies in closing our Gender Pay Gap which we report progress against annually.
Careers at Currys
We’re the team that puts the human touch in technology. And that takes skills. People skills, tech skills, life skills. From your first day, we’ll give you the support and opportunities to grow them all as well as focus on where you want to take them. Everyone, through their own Individual Development Plan, is encouraged to think about their career and how they want to develop. And for our part, we help our colleagues to get even better at what they do and work towards their next step – and what amazing looks like for them. At Currys, learning is always-on and it’s open to everyone.
If learning makes you think of dull days in the classroom, think again. Our blended approach includes on-the-job training, online learning platforms, virtual programmes, and Lunch and Learns, not to mention our state-of-the-art Retail training facility.
Helping everyone enjoy amazing tech is pretty rewarding in itself, but our benefits go even deeper. From healthcare to discounts to development, plus financial protection, pension and a bonus plan, you can select what suits you, your lifestyle and your career. It all adds up to some amazing perks.
