Digital and Technology

The world is changing rapidly and the pace of the tech landscape is only set to accelerate. We’re looking to create the platforms, products and services that will empower people and transform our homes, our lives and our society.

Innovation is not new to us. While we've been doing this for 180 years what sets us apart is that when we talk about innovation, we make it happen. That’s why we’ve recently invested £720m on research and development this year, filing 109 initial patent applications to add to our current portfolio of more than 5,100 patents and patent applications.

From simplifying the life of our customers through personalised journeys with our Data & AI capabilities and Product teams, or designing and building world-class mobile, and desktop applications, managing big parts of the critical national infrastructure like the 999 service, to connecting the country with our 5G technology, the breadth of projects and opportunities for you grow here is second to none.
