Union Street’s teams work in a really collaborative way and there’s a good culture of cooperation from staff at every level. Whenever I needed to know anything there was always someone available to ask and, in my role, I got to work closely with some really knowledgeable people. The training I received through Union Street’s training courses was invaluable, as was the mentoring I received. It really put everything in perspective and taught me most of what I know about the telecoms industry.

Because Union Street’s a company that’s growing quickly, there have always been lots of opportunities to progress. Most of the skills you learn are transferable between departments so it’s easy to side step into new areas of the business. If you have enough ambition there’s always a new role for you. It’s really about where you want to go and how far you want to take it.

One of the things I really love about Union Street are the people I get to work with and I don’t just mean in the company itself. As an Account Manager, I regularly visit our partners to help them get the most out of our software by providing help, advice and information on the new features it has to offer. The feedback I take back from our partners is really encouraging and crucial to guiding the onward development of our products and support services.

The company has a really friendly atmosphere so it’s easy for everyone to get to know everyone else. The people here are very helpful and willing to give a hand when you’re in need, both in and out of work. We regularly organise events and meals that people from all areas of the company join in with.

I joined Union Street a few years ago as a member of the sales team. Much has changed in my time at Union Street, both with the company and its products, and in the wider telecoms and IT markets.

That really is one of the best things about working in this industry, nothing stays the same for long. There's always something new to learn which keeps things interesting and frequent changes ensure plenty of fresh opportunities. Our teams are really supportive and always happy to help when you need a hand.
