We recognise that our people need the freedom to balance their day-to-day lives with their work. This is why we’ve set out to create inclusive and flexible policies and practices for you to accommodate all your responsibilities and needs: children, family and beyond.

At TransUnion, we’re committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse workplace where all individual’s talents and perspectives are valued. When you apply for a position with us, you’re not just joining a team, you’re becoming part of a community that celebrates differences and embraces equality. We understand that everyone has different needs, which is why we offer a range of reasonable adjustments to our recruitment process. Please let us know if you require any reasonable adjustments to help you through the application process or to attend an interview with us by contacting ukrecruitment@transunion.com.

Most of our recruitment processes are virtual, so you’ll get to know our hiring managers and teams over the phone and through video. If we need you to attend a physical in-person interview, your recruiter will inform you of this.

We do not accept any unsolicited CVs from recruitment agencies. If you are a recruitment agency on our PSL, our talent team will contact you directly should we require any assistance.

This is a hybrid position and involves regular performance of job responsibilities virtually as well as in-person at an assigned TU office location for a minimum of two days a week.
