Every employee is both a learner and a teacher, according to the games developer Sumo Group, whether they have been in the industry 25 days or 25 years. Learning from each other in a welcoming and passionate workplace is key to Sumo's vision: achieve wonder together.

Sumo Group is an award-winning family of businesses creating some of the best entertainment experiences in the world and employing over 1200 people. Contributing to successful franchises such as Minecraft, Mortal Kombat and Sonic the Hedgehog, the group has nine game development studios in the UK and India. Sumo also runs Atomhawk, providing concept art services from Newcastle and Vancouver, and the American studio Pipeworks in Oregon.

Making Sumo a great place to work is the highest people priority. Sumo’s environments are relaxed, friendly, and inclusive, offering fantastic benefits, such as an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP), Mental Health First Aiders (MHFAs), 5 annual learning days, a social learning portal, charity giving, yoga, life drawing, free fruit and drinks among many others. Sumo Group is welcoming, passionate and a fun place to be.

In 2021 the group hired a full-time Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Manager, to both restructure the in-house diversity team, Prism, and create a recognised platform to help lay a clear pathway for the future of EDI across Sumo Group.
