We've been awarded the UK's best network for the last 10 years. It's central to our vision - to be the most personal customer-focused technology company in the UK.


That means earning a place on customers' home screens by offering them more than ever before, whether that's helping their home run smarter with EE Home, levelling up their play with EE Game, helping them work on their terms with EE Work, or even unleashing their kids' learning with EE Learn.

We're also part of BT Group, which we're even bigger than you might think.

Millions of people rely on us every day to help them live their lives, power their businesses, and keep their public services running.

We connect friends to family, clients to colleagues, people to possibilities. We keep the wheels of business spinning, and the emergency services responding.

We think we've got something special here.

We want everyone to feel proud about working at EE - and feel excited about where we're going and what we're going to do.
