About us

Dyson is a global technology company with a unique philosophy - to solve problems that others ignore. It transforms every category it enters with radical and iconic re-inventions that work, perform and look very different. Dyson\'s culture is unique; dynamic, inventive, technology-obsessed and decidedly un-corporate. The mindset is geared to constant change and Dyson\'s pace brings constant challenge. It\'s not easy or comfortable, but it\'s this way of working that drives performance.

Dyson suits people with the courage and resilience to find their own way, spotting opportunities where others don\'t, and having the self-belief to persevere where others give up. \xe2\x80\x9cGood enough\xe2\x80\x9d isn\'t good enough. Experiences are more important than experience. And attitude counts as much as aptitude.

We\'re committed to our campus culture and don\'t look to offer a regular hybrid working arrangement. This helps us to achieve the spirit of Dyson - collaboration, creativity, and inventiveness - in our inspiring, social, and dynamic workspaces.
