Sparta Global is an award-winning provider of business and technology careers. We help graduates, non-graduates, returners and career changers to kickstart technology careers in a matter of months - and we want to help you too. We hire throughout the year for a number of emerging business and technology roles - providing paid training in your chosen specialism and assigning you to work on-site as a consultant with one of our top tier clients.
Let's take you through what it means to be a Spartan, how you can apply, the application process and next steps.
You MUST have the right to work in the UK to be a successful Sparta Global applicant.
You automatically have the right to work in the UK if: you're a British or Irish citizen, or you have pre-settled or settled status from the EU Settlement Scheme. We do not offer sponsorship or accept Graduate or PSW Visas and you will be disqualified if this is necessary.
Absolutely not. We hire individuals based on their attitude, aptitude and potential for success in a digital role. We test for this through a compilation of psychometric, written, and verbal assessments when someone applies for a role. The success of an individual's application is based on this and not prior experience or education. Please note, with some roles technical tests are required, but we provide learning materials in advance to support those from non-tech backgrounds.
No. Training is the first stage of employment with Sparta Global, therefore we fund the full 8-10 weeks of training that every Spartan must complete before being assigned to work on a client site.
Yes. Spartans receive a salary throughout their training period leading to a pay increase when they are a qualified Spartan working on-site with one of our clients.
No.
As of September 2022, all training remains remote and therefore our roles are open to passionate people across the UK & Ireland.
In order to give our Spartans the opportunity to work in their first technical role as soon as possible - and soon after training has ended - we ask all Spartans to be flexible. We will assign Spartans to the organisations where their skills are in-demand and where we see the potential for a great cultural fit. However, we do take into consideration the individual passions of each of our Spartans to ensure they will be as happy as possible in their assigned position. All Spartans must also be geographically flexible and willing to relocate for roles.

View our roles and apply1. Candidates who pass the initial screening are invited to a telephone interview. In this conversation we'll assess your communication skills, motivation, professionalism, and dive deeper into your goals, interests, and background. Do take time to research our company and the role you are applying for.
2. Successful candidates will progress from the telephone interview and be required to complete a series of online assessments. These assessments will evaluate your technical competence in programming and cognitive abilities - with the focus dependent on your selected role.
3. Last stage is a competency interview - an opportunity to showcase clear and confident communication of technical concepts and behavioural competencies, supported by relevant examples. We value those who demonstrate their personality, collaboration, and a growth mindset.
