  • Health and Wellbeing: We all know how important health is, and sometimes a little extra support can make a big difference. With Medicash, you can access a virtual GP service, get help with alternative therapies or claim back optical or dental expenses, ensuring your health and well-being are always a priority.
  • Rest and Adventure: Enjoy 25 days of holiday allowance plus bank holidays! Whether you need to rest and recharge or seek new adventures like storming up a mountain, we want you to have the time to do what thrills you.

  • Future Security: National surveys show that pensions are a top priority for employees. That’s why we offer an enhanced pension scheme with a 5% match after a year, helping you secure your future.
  • Socials: Enjoy our calendar of events, which include lunches, activities and meet-ups with all our teams (we're quite big now and spread across the nation!). These gatherings are a fantastic opportunity for everyone to catch up, socialize, and build connections within the business.
  • Celebrate Your Day: Take an extra day off on us for your birthday! Celebrate with a spa day, an extra-long weekend, or simply spend time with your favourite people knowing you have an extra day of annual leave.
  • Extra Time: We appreciate your dedication and service. As a token of our gratitude, your holiday allowance increases with your length of service.
  • Investing in Your Skills: We support your growth and development with study support, helping you invest in your skills and future, whether that’s gaining your professional membership or taking a course that will help you with your role. We even have a physical academy here, dedicated to developing your skills.
  • Your Wellbeing Matters: We understand the importance of mental health and its impact on your overall wellbeing. That's why we offer 24/7 mental health support and complementary counselling sessions. Additionally, we've created a dedicated space called the Zen Den where you can take a break, pray or just have time to regroup.
