We’re based in an open plan, purpose built office with parking on a business estate just on the outskirts of Leyland. We have the whole building, spread over two floors with a mostly open plan working environment. There’s lots of windows and natural light, it’s a calm, pleasant and friendly workplace, with a great canteen/break out space along with some outside space for those brighter dry days to eat outside or head for a walk. Leyland is famous as once being the home of one of the largest vehicle manufacturers in the UK; British Leyland – probably best known for their trucks and buses. There are several retail parks and leisure centres, the town centre also has a thriving market along with a mix of independent and well known chain stores. Leyland has great access to road links to Preston, Blackpool and Chorley, as well as the M6 and M58 if heading to Manchester, Liverpool or north towards Lancaster and The Lakes. Life at Cegedim Healthcare Solutions: We are passionate about technology and take great pride in producing innovative IT solutions that have a direct and positive impact on the UK health sector. We’re also a friendly, professional, highly skilled, hard-working and sociable team! We hold regular work and social events, online and in person, to keep our teams up to date with what’s going on across our group, as well as various charity, sports or other interests/hobby related activities for those who wish to take part. We introduced innovation days; a day per month for every employee to invest in developing ideas and supporting new innovations – whether it’s focusing on a particular project, gaining insight into a different area of the business or getting together with colleagues to brainstorm, sharing knowledge, expertise and looking at new ideas and innovations to benefit our customers, our teams and our business. If you're working in one of our offices there are various break out and/or kitchen areas - and outside/green space areas at or near to the offices - allowing you to have some time away from desk; go for a stroll, take some exercise, eat your lunch, catch up with colleagues, read, listen to music, play computer games, so you have somewhere to relax, refresh and reboot. We have a casual dress code.
