Ghost is an exceptionally creative environment that is more likely to reward those who think outside of the box than those who prefer convention.

Ghost also offers one of the most stable opportunities for employment in the field. It is a challenging job and only the most skilled, talented, and dedicated are going to enjoy a career with us.
