Put us all in a room and ask us why we work here, and you'll get any number of answers. Some will point to the vast range of opportunities or the pride of being part of such a famous, well-loved brand. Others will talk about the people - we're friendly, open and genuinely excited about what we do.
Your training will kick off with a company induction so that you can get up to speed with what Orange is all about. Depending on the area you work in, you'll get specialist training for your job.
If you join one of our Retail or Customer Service teams, you'll get intensive training up front to give you all the skills and confidence you need to provide brilliant service. Your Store Manager or Team Leader will be there to coach you and you'll get support and encouragement from your team mates.
If you're behind the scenes, you'll work with your manager to set objectives and write a career plan, choosing any training you need from our catalogue of courses and workshops. We'll support you in developing your skills if you need to learn a new language or get a further education qualification. You can also take part in our career coaching and mentoring schemes to help you plan your career path and get ahead in the business.
Our management training is designed to support the people that lead our business and you could join the Orange Management School, run in partnership with the highly respected Ashridge Business School. You'll also get the chance to take part in Orange Reality, a 'back to the floor' experience to keep you in touch with our customers.
We'll support you to do a great job, but we also want to make sure that you get the recognition you deserve when you've done some brilliant work. Our Brilliant awards allow anyone to nominate a colleague for doing a great job and that person could win a day off work. We also have an annual Orange Stars award, with the top winners of the year getting £1,000 and a holiday.
We've got some really loyal people and we reward them by making sure that the longer you're here the more holiday you get, with increased holiday allowance when you reach your 5 and 10 year anniversaries. We also hold Orange anniversary parties so the people that have been here a while can get together to celebrate and we can thank them and their partners for all their support.
As a communications company, we make sure we're really good at talking to our people. Every month we publish our very own newspaper, Orange News, filled with stories about what's going on around the company, what our customers are into and things our employees are getting up to.
We pride ourselves on a strong company strategy and make sure that everyone knows the company's plans and how their role contributes to our success, with regular updates from our CEO, Tom Alexander.
It's important that our communication goes both ways and we use People Poll, our employee survey, to measure how our people are feeling and areas where we could do better. We also have ECON, our employee consultation group, with representatives all around the company who support employees and meet regularly to discuss any issues with the Management team.
There's no kind of prejudice here. We hire on your potential, promote on talent and reward success. So, if you're looking for a business where you can feel comfortable, energised and appreciated for who you are and what you can offer, you're definitely in the right place. You'll find people from all backgrounds here and we believe everyone has a part to play in making Orange an even better place to work. Read more about our diversity policies.
Orange offers you loads of benefits because we think it's important to recognise and reward great work. You'll also have the chance to take advantage of being part of a successful global company.
For a start, we make sure we get the basics right and that means competitive pay that we regularly compare to other leading employers to make sure you're properly rewarded for the job you do.
On top of that, every single employee receives either a bonus, or commission if you work in Sales or Stores. Monthly commission is based on your performance against targets. Bonuses are paid twice a year on the basis of how well you do and the performance of the company as a whole.
If you're on the road or you've reached a certain grade, you'll be eligible for a company car, or a car allowance. We offer flexibility around the car you choose and you may have the ability to downgrade to get a cash allowance too.
We want our employees to love our products and services as much as our customers do, so we give them discounted rates on phones and internet products, like broadband. We've created some phone plans especially for our employees and given them free broadband, just like our pay monthly customers. We also have an Orange Discounts shop, with exclusive access to online discounts.
Orange pays for comprehensive healthcare for all permanent employees, with additional cover available for your partner and children and the option of joining a dental top-up plan.
Everyone at Orange gets 25 days' holiday (or pro rata if you work part time) and we also have a holiday buy and sell scheme so you have the opportunity to trade up to 5 days' holiday too. We've got great maternity and paternity schemes and we have a flexible working policy to support working parents and carers. We also provide support in case of family emergencies and income protection for long-term health issues.
Our contributory pension scheme is available for anyone to join and offers flexible investment options for people at different life stages.
Orange is owned by France Telecom, one of the world's leading telecommunications operators. Everyone who works for the company has the opportunity to become a shareholder in the Group.
Every employee automatically receives access to a host of support services, including childcare vouchers, help with your tax return and the option of a discounted personal loan for travel to work.
