Joining Forces.
You may be feeling a little apprehensive about what the future looks like as SKY and Compass are joining forces. That’s understandable - there’s lots going on.
We’ve put this site together to help give you more information, and to answer some of your questions. We’ll also give you a flavour of what we’re about and why we’re excited that you’re joining the Compass family.
Proud you'll be part of our family.
We’re a people business. SKY's heritage and pedigree means we’re keen to learn from your experiences, and we know you’ll bring with your expertise with you.
We know that starting anywhere new, can feel overwhelming. Whether that’s meeting new people, learning new processes or grasping essential health and safety requirements - it's a lot to take in. Don’t worry, you’re in safe hands with like-minded teams who will be there to support you every step of the way.
Your career, your way.
Without amazing people (like you!), our business wouldn’t be possible. Whatever your role and whatever stage you’re at in your career, we want you to know that you can be yourself and let your personality and passions shine through.

We want you to be confident and comfortable that you can be yourself at Compass, whatever your race, gender, sexual orientation, age, nationality, or ability. Our Diversity & Inclusion networks are run by colleagues for colleagues and are key to creating an inclusive environment. They’re rooted in our commitment to building a culture of respect, integrity, and belonging. Our networks - Pride in Food, Within, Ability, Women in Food and You Matter – collaborate, celebrate, raise awareness, and enhance inclusivity across all our sectors.
Celebrating our colleagues.
Chef Appreciation Week
Held every year, it’s our opportunity to recognise and celebrate all the heroes behind our food. It’s when we say a massive thank you to our frontline chefs and culinary teams who champion their communities and environment. It’s our chance to show how incredibly grateful we are for their extraordinary dedication, creativity, and passion to nourish and connect us through thoughtfully prepared, delicious food, meal after meal.
Facilities Managements (FM) Appreciation Week
FM makes up a third of our overall business in the UK & Ireland. FM Appreciation Week showcases and celebrates the work of all our facilities managers and their teams. Those who often work behind the scenes within our business - colleagues in business helpdesk and guest services, cleaning, security, outdoor services, mechanical and electrical maintenance - are often the unsung heroes who ensure the smooth running of our sites 24/7.
Compass Community
Shared with every colleague, our bi-monthly newsletter celebrates all Compass heroes across our business. From highlighting colleagues’ extraordinary achievements and promoting initiatives through to spotlights on our D&I networks and the range of benefits available, they provide a roundup of all you need to know in one, bite-sized digest.

An extended edition of our Stop Food Waste Day digital cookbook has been viewed by 100,000+ people... and counting! Featuring recipes from over 50 Compass chefs across nearly 40 countries, the cookbook makes it easy to create meals which give a second life to ingredients that most commonly go to waste.
