We are the people at the heart of the ĢƵ.
We keep the plots twisting and turning, the lights on and the cameras rolling.

We get our audience to feel the spins, the lifts and the tens across the board.
[Fab-u-lous]
Making the magic of TV real for everyone.
We're always on the ball, the first to know the score, and the first to act.
Keeping up with the drama that nobody could write.
We're the team who mix the songs with the sound to make the shows that bring people together.
We know it's not just about the big headlines, it's about the news that shapes our lives, close to home.
It's about working together.
Turning big ideas into better ways to watch.
The ĢƵ is an ocean of opportunity.
You can move in any direction.
And growing your skills actually takes you places.
Finding more of what's out there and creating more to see here.
Turning characters people love into experiences they can share.
We each bring our own story to the ĢƵ.
Find your place with us.
This is your ĢƵ.


Life at the ĢƵ

There is no other organisation like the ĢƵ. As the world’s largest and longest-standing public service broadcaster, we have a unique role that informs culture and democracy in the UK and overseas.

Attracting and retaining the very best talent is at the heart of delivering for our audiences, and all of us have a role in building a culture that is creative, inclusive and full of opportunity. The benefits and experience we offer are key to achieving this, along with the way we embed our values and our Code of Conduct.

Our offer is designed to reward, support and develop our people. It reflects our values and is reviewed regularly to make sure we’re delivering for colleagues and the way they live and work.
