Why join us at N?
Managers are the beating heart of everything we do here at N. They are the centre of our communities, and the people our customers and teams look to for guidance. They’re also responsible for delivering high-quality education every day, alongside commercial targets.

That is why we’ve built the leading Manager’s package in the sector and support our leaders with training and opportunities to meet and learn from one another.
There’s even an annual ski (and spa!) trip to help our managers connect, relax and recharge.
