What’s it like at our Sussex office?
SK has always benefited from a base in London and Sussex. Where and how we work is important. Having space in which to think, collaborate and get creative are all key. Against the backdrop of Covid-19, our Sussex office has become our primary working space. We have the benefits of flexible spaces so that we can work together, safely and separately in peace when we need to.

Getting here
As this will be a new role it is important to work together safely face to face with a combination of remote and flexible working. Our offices are cleaned daily and we work to the governments social-distancing guidelines.
If you live locally you can drive (or cycle!) to our office, which is 10 minutes from Haywards Heath train station. If you come by train we can arrange a taxi service to collect and drop you back. You can travel directly from:
London Bridge
London Victoria
London St Pancras
London Blackfriars
London Farringdon (all the Thameslink stops)
East Croydon
Clapham Junction
Brighton
The good news is that the trains are quiet coming here and you’ll always get a seat.
There will potentially be a company pool car in Sussex too, so you can get out and about at lunchtimes.
In time we will be in London again at least once a week, and will be looking for additional creative spaces to work together as a team in the short-term.
A team breakfast in the gardens
Food is important to us!
In Sussex we have the benefits of an open plan kitchen where you can help yourself to anything you need from a light salad to a sandwich or a smoothie. You can rustle up a quick lunch on your own or over a conversation with the team.
We love our coffee and enjoy a fresh, barista style brew every day thanks to our much loved artisan machine.
Once a week we have a team breakfast or lunch, and like to celebrate our achievements and milestones with homemade cake and tea...or gin. We’re fond of fizz too.
Our outdoor working space
We’re into wellbeing
We provide gym membership to Linear Fitness which has both indoor and outdoor classes and is 5 minutes from the office. Alternatviely, we contribute to your own gym membership or fitness classes.
Our office is 5 minutes from the South of England Show Ground which makes for beautiful lunch-time walks and quiet thinking space.
Once a month we have a team ‘Pause and Reflect’ where we go for a walk around Wakehurst Place just a 5 minute drive away or around Ardingly Reservoir.
We have an open garden space and provide laptop screen covers, so we can enjoy some Vitamin D whilst getting on with our important work!
We enjoy paddle board yoga, morning mantras, ‘joy vibe’ rituals and a healthy work-life balance.
This is a golden oldie - but still gives you a good feel for SK!
