We’re the problem solvers who find smarter and simpler ways to connect customers to more of what they love.
We are currently building a Global Streaming Product team, who will steer our core global product to service the business needs of each proposition (Peacock, NOW, Sky Showtime and Showmax). In the heart of the growth strategy for each proposition is our partnerships, whether global ecosystem players (like Apple, Amazon, Google), Telcos (like BT, Deutsche Telecom), MVPDs or other 3rd parties (like Samsung, LG).
