Careers at Up Group

Our Up Makers are a community of committed and highly entrepreneurial men and women in which everyone works together towards their shared commitment of helping their fellow citizens lead better lives.

Becoming an Up Maker also means experiencing a totally different kind of company where the quest for performance never sacrifices high-quality relationships or personal and collective ambitions.

Most importantly, we want to recruit people from a broad diversity of backgrounds, but who share the same thirst to learn new things, get involved and pass on their knowledge for the benefit of others. Professional skills are important, but Up wants primarily to onboard and support motivated Up Makers driven by a strong commitment to solidarity and supporting others.

So whether you’re a business school graduate, self-taught or innately entrepreneurial... Join a totally different kind of company whose goal is to make every employee an active contributor to achieving a collective ambition. Learn more about our corporate culture.

The key recruitment stages at Up

An initial telephone conversation with our Talent Acquisition team will give us the opportunity to confirm that you have a suitable profile for the vacancy concerned.
If the outcome is positive (for you, as well as for us), we’ll ask you to complete some online tests and you’ll meet the manager and Talent Acquisition team to discuss the company, the tasks involved in the job and the reasons why you want to join us.
So what happens then if you - and we - want to take it to the next stage? We’ll arrange further meetings so that you can chat directly with your senior manager, future colleagues and others, after which we’ll make our final decision.

It covers the full spectrum of skills development resources, from in-house and external training to on-the-job, online, face-to-face and distance learning, as well as blended learning, microlearning, tutoring... and more. 

Particular attention is focused on ensuring that all employees are able to achieve the best-possible work/life balance when training.
