Meet the team behind this journey We currently have two teams in the SRE track, and some SRE peers in other parts of the business. The in-track teams work closely, often collaborating. The first team SRE: Excellence focussed on making it easier to use our systems and provide tools and services to help run and monitor our products. The second team SRE: Accelerate works closely with our product development teams to use these as effectively as possible and embed better practice in teams. Both teams help ensure the services remain performance and reliable with overall business SLA being a metric. As our business and these teams grow and evolve the teams are likely to become increasingly aligned with distinct products that we offer our customers.

- Resilience - there’s a wide range of opinions, we need to bring people on a journey.
- Relentless energy - There’s lots to do and there’s always more we want to achieve. We also know when people need a break and make sure the balance is good and healthy.

## Experience
