The Role
I love working for orbitsound. Everyday is a new challenge and the support network around me has helped me achieve my goals in the time ive worked here.
The support from management, HR and across the business cannot be questioned. They make you feel like part of the business family.
Any queries and questions I have had have been dealt with my management. They have all helped me in terms of development and compassion.
Always busy, once you undertake responsibility for your business in the retail environments you will always find fun and fulfilling ways to succeed on a daily basis.
I have always tried to effectively think of this as my own business in my own location. Its a great feeling. However the support network around me heavily aids my success.
My role at orbitsound helped with the business side of my degree. Lecturers will often ask to apply a theoretical principle to a real life situation. Working in the orbitsound team helped me understand the business world in regards to finance, marketing and even a few socialogical areas. I cannot describe enough however how much this role has broken my own personal belief barriers and made me a more confident person.
The Company
Always a positive atmosphere. Surrounding yourself with happy hard working people has always given me more confidence that what I am doing is making a difference.
Very well organised. Took me personally a little longer than some others to understand the role better. However thanks to patience and pesistant managerial help it paid off.
I had a full time role offered straight after university and although I never saw this as a permanent job when I first started. I realised my passion and drive for this business was to a level that id be crazy to have said no. The development and trust placed in me will always be something I treasure.

My story tells all. Orbitsound must be one.of the best organisation for helping young people like myself. I have contributed to other areas and not just sales. Regular training events and additional skill sets by individuals are structured and applied to great effect.
The Culture
Always a vibrant atmosphere at work and work based functions. The attitude of all the staff is always admirable.
Very expensive area. For housing and for most things.
Not amazing yet often you can travel short distances to.find better places.
Days trips Evenings events Rewarding nights out Food and drinks
