Advice for prospective candidates
JT is a unique and very exciting company. Being a Tier 1 telecommunications company based in the Channel Islands allows us to launch global products and solutions across multiple markets… and in all honesty punch above our weight in areas/markets that many people aren’t aware that we are in.
If you’re considering applying to JT then I would really recommend it. You do not need to be highly technical or have all the answers, just an attitude to want to learn and pick up new skills.
