About us
At Vodafone, we are known for our technology, but the truth is, it is humanity that drives our business forward. With the global pandemic raising so many questions for tech brands, it has highlighted the leading role that we need to play. We believe that, when working together, humanity and technology can find the answers and create a better future for all. Working at Vodafone is all about helping people feel ready to benefit from new technology. We bring the future to even the most remote places, using technology to help families in disaster zones, showing young people that a phone is not just for fun and thinking about technology that doesn’t even exist yet. More than 35 years ago, we made the first-ever mobile phone call, we sent the first SMS in Britain and have been changing the lives of billions of people ever since. Now, we are using smartphones to fight cancer, big data for social good, and we aim to connect over 250 million people to our next generation networks by 2025. We are passionate about building a workplace where you can truly be yourself, share inspiration, embrace new opportunities, thrive and make a real difference to people and our planet. We are known for our technology, but it is humanity that drives us forward. What are you passionate about? #TogetherWeCan

Vodafone UK and Virgin Media O2 have agreed to extend and enhance their existing mobile network sharing agreement for more than a decade. This network sharing agreement reduces site duplication and ensures that customers of both brands have access to better mobile coverage across the UK. Subject to completion of the merger between Vodafone UK and Three UK, the latter’s mast sites will also join this agreement, plus Virgin Media O2 will acquire mobile spectrum from the newly created MergeCo. That will lead to three scaled mobile network operators in the UK (including BT/EE), each with a better alignment of spectrum holdings. This new network sharing agreement, and the planned merger which will increase 5G investment, will bolster quality mobile coverage across the country and deliver improved services for over 50 million customers.
