I love the working environment and the support I get at Unite Students. I really appreciate that the company takes the time to recognise the hard work I put in and invest in training and developing my skills. The good working environment and the feeling of teamwork and support is amazing. There's real cooperation between the different city teams, too.

The culture at Unite Students is very friendly and exciting – no two days are the same in maintenance and it’s really fast paced role. Our two main focuses are the customers and team work – without working as a strong team we cannot deliver the excellent service our students need. We work hard but have a great culture, where having fun at work is also important. We do lots of team building activities and have many initiatives for those that go above and beyond expectations. We’re regularly acknowledged for our hard work and efforts – there are Starts awards, a bonus scheme and monthly rewards, including gift vouchers.
The company sends out updates so that everyone in the business knows what’s happening and where the business is heading. It’s really reassuring that there are so many opportunities and the business is growing – and it’s great to say that you work at the biggest and best company in our industry. There’s a great deal of job security and progression, something I can personally vouch for. I joined the company two and a half years ago as a Maintenance Operative, then Maintenance Supervisor and then to running multiple cities: Plymouth, Exeter, Bristol, Bath and Swindon.
The company’s values are at the core of what we do – it’s great to have a set of values that you believe in and can see being delivered. It’s not often that a company will put ‘have fun’ as one of their values, but Unite Students do because even during busy periods, they want people to want to come to work and be part of the team.
