" The new IT strategy has meant the creation of a new organisation structure, creating opportunity and investment in new skills. "
We believe there are no shortage of great reasons to join our organisation; whether this is our financial strength and our investment in growth or perhaps it’s our culture and our passion for helping people to grow. Or perhaps it is the investment in a Chief Information Officer and the new IT structure that we have put in place. Whatever the reasons are that appeal to you individually, we are confident that we can offer you a challenging career in a progressive financial services company where IT really is at the heart of the business opportunities.
Financial strength and growth:
Domestic & General has an enviable track record over many years of consistently delivering double digit growth in profits; over the last five years alone the profits have risen by nearly 150%.
We are using this profit to invest heavily in growing our market share of both our domestic and international markets. We are also very excited about the future and the opportunities to bring new and diverse products and services to market. It is these opportunities that are at driving our future IT strategy and investment in the next generation of systems.
The new IT organisation:
In response to our various business challenges, we have recently created a brand new IT organisation. The new structure focuses across a number of key areas from business account management, IT project governance as well as the delivery of aligned IT solutions and service delivery.
This is an exciting time due to join us with the change in IT and the rapid international expansion. We have a number of business challenges - most notably all are IS/IT dependent.
Over the coming months we will be posting a number of new roles; inviting applications from both internal candidates in addition to attracting new people into the organisation to help complement and improve our existing talent pool.
Our culture:
We are a friendly and professional company with a strong work ethic and a fundamental belief in quality and good performance throughout our organisation. We provide a workplace that is both stimulating and creative. We maintain an enjoyable environment with opportunity for role expansion and development for the right people.
We encourage staff to have fun at work. Social activities are organised by staff across sites and we also support local and national charities through organised fund-raising days – last year we supported Children in Need, RNIB and British Heart Foundation to name a few.
D&G is a large and growing company, but we strive to maintain a small company atmosphere, Managers are open and accessible and everybody is encouraged to contribute to the efficiency and profitability of the company through our good ideas scheme.
