An Introduction to CityFibre

Learn who CityFibre really is, and how they’re working to build a better world. In this initial module, we’ll lay the groundwork as we build a picture of the UK's largest independent full-fibre platform.

The CityFibre Service

Who are CityFibre’s customers? And how does CityFibre work to delight them? In this module, you’ll discover CityFibre’s success stories, as we uncover how the company makes a real impact.

Planning & Designing the Network

Deciding where to roll out a new full-fibre network is the first step - and one that comes with some challenges. In this module, we’ll understand how CityFibre plans and designs the network, what steps, teams and skills are involved in the process, and hear directly from colleagues in another Springpod Session.

Delivering the Network

Next - CityFibre delivers. The build phase begins and new teams with new skills muck in. How does the installation process work? How does CityFibre minimise disruption during this type of activity? The team itself will help answer these questions, plus many more, in this module.

Support Functions

Support teams may be behind the scenes, but that doesn’t make them any less important! CityFibre hires HR, legal, strategy and finance roles, too, who play their part. In this module, you’ll learn how they work together to keep things running smoothly, and meet the team in your final Springpod Session.

Employability Skills

What are ‘employability’ skills and why do we need them? In this module on soft skills, you’ll discover the key qualities you need to impress any employer. From teamwork and communication to perfect problem-solving, you’ll finish up this module feeling confident and career-ready.
