About Us
A 50-50 joint venture between Tesco and VMO2 that was established back in 2003, Tesco Mobile has gone from strength to strength as we've launched into new services and markets. With more than 5 million customers, we're the largest mobile virtual network operator in the UK. We're proud to have an inclusive culture that's uniquely Tesco Mobile, with a strong sense of community, plus all the benefits of working for one of the shareholders.

We care for human connection and we keep our customers at the heart of everything we do, which is why we've embraced the Agile way of working. Agile is more than just a methodology - it's a liberating journey that puts customers and purpose first. It empowers us to self-organise, collaborate, co-create and rapidly inspect and adapt everything we do - allowing us to respond at pace to our customers' needs. It encourages variety of thought and enables us to thrive, both individually and collectively.

We are proud to have an inclusive culture at Tesco where everyone truly feels able to be themselves. At Tesco, we not only celebrate diversity, but recognise the value and opportunity it brings. We're committed to creating a workplace where differences are valued, and make sure that all colleagues are given the same opportunities. We're proud to have been accredited Disability Confident Leader and we're committed to providing a fully inclusive and accessible recruitment process.

We're a big business and we can offer a range of diverse full-time & part-time working patterns across our many business areas, which means that we can find something that works for you. We work in a more blended pattern - combining office and remote working. Our offices will continue to be where we connect, collaborate and innovate.
