About Upp
We’re Upp, and we’re building a world class, full-fibre broadband network to serve residential customers and businesses across the East of England and beyond.
We’re a start-up (incorporated in 2021) but our leadership team is brimming with experience from some of the UK’s leading telecommunications companies. Although we’ve only been up and running a short amount of time, our growth trajectory is aggressive, and our ambitions bold and exciting.
We’ve already hired over 100 people and our first customers are now connected in Lincolnshire and Norfolk. You’ll be joining Upp at an incredibly exciting time as we ramp up our rollout across more towns and start delivering the future of connectivity to the communities that need it most.
Our company values include personal responsibility (if we make a mistake, we own it), positivity (we assume the best of our team & colleagues at all times), as well as crucial focus on improving people's lives across the communities we serve.
By joining us at this early stage the opportunities for progression, growth and career development are great. The potential here at Upp is huge, but we know we need an amazing team to help us achieve our ambitious goals and to ensure we’re having fun while we do it.
