    What Our Engineers Say About Working for STILL:

    STILL works well for me because the hours suit my lifestyle and I have a better home/work life balance.

    In my previous role I often worked shifts which included weekends/nights, this made making plans with family difficult. Annual leave was challenging to take unless booked a year in advance and working bank holidays was a requirement.

    Great salary and the support of the team here is invaluable.
