This is so much more than a company – it’s a way of working built on a culture of achieving the impossible.

What sets Discovery apart is not the shared value business model or the ambitions that drive our actions. What really sets us apart is the people that dedicate their working lives to answering one simple question – "What's next?"
What are Discovery people made of?
The kind of people that work at Discovery offer a blend of talents that they focus on achieving every goal they set.
While we do pride ourselves on attracting intellectual leaders who are the best in their respective fields, the truth is that our business is built on people who want to learn and grow, and push themselves to do so.
That’s what Defy Gravity means. It’s a mindset that each of us shares. It’s that little voice that asks us to imagine a new level, and then pushes us to chase that dream.
Most importantly, we don’t settle when we’ve left those limits behind. We look for the next challenge and dive into it without pausing to think how far we’ve already come.
A tenacious team
The feeling you get when you engage with our team is difficult to describe.
That crackling, electric energy is the restless energy of the relentless. It’s tangible tenacity – the by-product of a team working at pace to push on to the next challenge.
And it's essential if you hope to defy gravity along with us.
Defy gravity
Fuelled by our purpose as a business and our individual drive, it often feels like we transcend expectation and achieve the remarkable.
And we do – because of every person who lives and breathes to make us better.
Best of all, that spark that drives us only grows with time. It is alive in you, waiting for you to forget everything you know about limitations, and leave doubt in the dust.
