Amazing organisation - Anonymous employee SCCU Group Employee Review

I was told by the recruitment service that handled my interviews this was a fantastic place to work that looked after people. As you can imagine I thought 'of course they would say that' and didn't think much of it. It wasn't until I started and spent some time reflecting after my first few months that comment found it's way back into my thoughts. The recruiter was right, this is a fantastic place to work and the people are the backbone of this. What we do is provide education delivery, how we do it is what sets this company apart. Everything feels human first and a relaxed working environment is met with professional visions and targets. There is a big ambition here and this makes you find value in the work you're doing whilst feeling valued by colleagues. I have had the privilege to work at two companies now that have managed to walk the line of creating a positive workplace culture whilst not losing sight of the work, This was a big thing when I left my previous role because I didn't think I would get to enjoy that comfort again. However, SCCU made it happen. I'm now confident I can echo the same words the recruiter said to me, to anyone else.

Lack of high-end espresso machine! but... I'm working on that.

Genuinely one of the most down-to-earth and authentic cultures I’ve experienced. There’s a real sense that people care — not just about the business, but about each other and the impact of the work. The learner is clearly at the centre of everything, which gives real purpose to what you’re doing day to day. The team works brilliantly together, and there’s a strong alignment in values which makes a big difference. Leadership are both visionary and supportive — you feel like you’re part of something that’s growing with intent, not just chasing numbers. There’s a lot of energy in the business right now, and it’s an exciting time to be part of that journey.

As with any scaling organisation, it can feel quite “all hands on deck” at times. Processes and structure are still evolving, so not everything is perfect or fully polished yet. That said, there’s a clear awareness of this, and the business is actively working to improve and build as it grows.
