What’s it like to work at F-At Digital?
Founded by two cycling journalists, F-At Digital has always tried to recruit the best people, give them the best support and let them get on with the job. Company culture is relaxed, friendly, flexible and above all professional. As a company, we never lose sight of the fact that our sites are nothing without the people that write and produce them and that we’re all part of a team – something that’s even more important when you’re part of a team that’s spread right across the UK and beyond. While remote and hybrid working have been a part of how we operate since the company was founded in 2008, we also recognise that some people like to work in an office or that circumstances might mean you need to switch things around once in a while too. That's all fine by us – we’ve found that whatever works for you tends to work for us too.
