The Team

Customer Growth are the heartbeat of Sky. We are responsible for the acquisition and retention of our TV, Broadband and Mobile customer base . So, you'll work really closely with the product P&L's to pull together a plan to hit the sales and retention targets, then execute these across our channels. As a result, this role will allow you to rapidly build an internal network across Sky. So, if you want to work across large groups of diverse teams in a high-profile role, then this could be for you!


What you'll do:

  • We are looking for highly motivated people who have a good eye for numbers, enjoy spotting opportunities, then more importantly, enjoy doing something about it. So that could be coming up with ideas to close a gap in performance on one of our TV products or working in a team to launch a new product like Sky Glass. We have a full roadmap of future product launches, so you'll be exposed to some innovative new products on the horizon.
  • A large part of this role is the ability to look at a set of performance numbers on a product and pull these into a story for people across the business
  • You will be responsible for pulling insight on product performance in the channel you are responsible for, then pulling this into a story for our trading meetings. So having good communication skills is essential.


What you'll bring:

We are looking for proactive and inquisitive personalities who enjoy working with numbers. You will have some prior experience of commercial/financial analysis and be able to translate the numbers into the 'now what?'

Traits we look for:

  • Energy - thrives in a fast-paced environment
  • Inquisitive - naturally curious and wants to find out more about why product performance is above or below plan is
  • Growth - you are keen to learn, ask lots of questions and know your strengths and areas to work on


The rewards:

There's a reason people can't stop talking about #LifeAtSky. Our great range of rewards really are something special, here are just a few:

  • Sky Q, for the TV you love all in one place
  • A generous pension package
  • Private healthcare
  • Discounted mobile and broadband
  • Access a wide range of exclusive Sky VIP rewards and experiences


Where you'll work:

Osterley:

We work in a hybrid way with 3 days in the office and 2 at home. With such a large campus, there is a huge buzz on the site along with a lot of face-face collaboration which is why we feel it is important for people to be spend a few days in the office then a couple of days at home. Within that there is a lot of flexibility as to when you start/end the day.

Our Osterley Campus is a 10-minute walk from Syon Lane train station. Or you can hop on one of our free shuttle buses that run to and from Osterley, Gunnersbury, Ealing Broadway and South Ealing tube stations. There's also plenty of bike shelters and showers

On campus, you'll find 13 subsidised restaurants, cafes, and a Waitrose. You can keep in shape at our subsidised gym, catch the latest shows and movies at our cinema, get your car washed and even get pampered at our beauty salon.


Inclusion:

We take pride in our approach to diversity and inclusion: we've been recognised by The Times and Stonewall for this, and we've committed £30million to support the fight against racial injustice. We've also set ambitious targets for increasing ethnic diversity and representation throughout our organisation.

At Sky we don't just look at your CV. We're more focused on who you are and your potential. We also know that everyone has a life outside work, so we're happy to support you as much as we can with flexible shift patterns.

And we'll do everything we can to support you during your application. If you need us to make any adjustments to our recruitment process, speak to our recruitment team who will be happy to support you.
