As a company, we’re the sum of the many great people with diverse skills who work here. Watch our video below to hear from our colleagues on what it's like to work at Muse.
We are Muse
We’re a group of people with a passionate, can-do attitude and an upbeat outlook… genuinely collaborative team players. We work hard to listen and learn from everyone we work with and from every project we work on.
After over 40 years we’re still as passionate and driven as when we started, constantly looking for the next challenge, our next collaboration, getting excited about the next big project.
Why join Muse?
We go the extra mile for our people. This is embedded within our business with initiatives such as enhanced parental leave, hybrid working and personal and career development opportunities.
We are both an ‘Investors in People’ Gold Standard organisation, and ‘Great Place to Work UK’ accredited.
Our values
Courage
Courage at Muse isn’t bravado. It’s acting with integrity; digging in and staying true to our beliefs when things are hard, unclear, or uncomfortable.
Curiosity
Curiosity is how we learn and avoid complacency. It’s about asking better questions, listening properly, and staying open to new ideas. Curious people take time to understand the problem, including what communities, partners, or colleagues see that we may not.
Positivity
Positivity isn’t forced optimism. It’s realistic belief and momentum – a focus on progress, not blame (and there’s an infectious, undeniable energy in that).
Care
Care is how we treat people, our partners, our communities, and the work itself. It’s empathy and respect – and it’s responsibility. Caring means paying attention to impact, acting with integrity, and supporting each other in ways that are fair and sustainable.
Benefits
We believe the key to success lies with empowered and happy people. We’re committed to creating an environment that celebrates, rewards, and supports our team, providing an industry leading suite of staff benefits and rewards.
