Working here

Ask the DSG Family what they love best about working here (and we do!) and there is one response that comes up every time: The People. Our relaxed, professional working environment is based on respect and inclusivity. We make a habit of promoting from within -as seen from the number of senior managers who joined as apprentices. Our full-spectrum wellbeing programme doesn’t just provide support in times of need (like our mental health champions, and 24/7 access to GPs and counsellors), it extends into coaching, job-crafting and encouraging our people to be the best version of themselves. Our bright and spacious new campus has a range of exercise equipment and all our people have access to lifestyle coaching from a qualified PT.

We actively seek business improvement ideas from our colleagues and reward them when they bear fruit. Alongside our lavish annual awards night, we have a monthly peer recognition programme for colleagues who display our core behaviours: Integrity, Growth, Absolute Excellence and Collaboration. Colleagues are regularly invited to host corporate guests in our executive box at the AO Arena where there is a fantastic line-up for 2022/23 .

If being a good corporate citizen is important to you, we raised over £21k for charity last year and have committed to jointly raising £22k in 2022. Through our sustainability partner, Mossy Earth, we are contributing to rewilding and reforestation projects in the UK and abroad. Closer to home, our plastic bottle ban, commitment to recycling and electric car charging points help make our world a better place
