Benefits

We know how important work life balance is for our colleagues and we encourage our colleagues to take time off throughout the year, and utilise the full extent of their allowance, as this is essential for our colleague’s health & wellbeing. We offer a minimum of 24 days’ annual leave plus 8 bank holidays with the option to buy up to 5 additional days holiday utilising our flexible benefits scheme.

Our Employee Assistance Programme is here to help our colleagues with almost anything they may need, including financial stress, health and lifestyle, legal queries and any work and home life issues. It’s easy to contact them – either through their freephone number, their app, email, or webchat.

We offer a Group pension with one of the UK’s leading pension providers, with a strong financial rating and an on-going commitment to the UK pensions market. As a policyholder, our colleagues benefit from a wide variety of investment options, employer contributions, well-developed online services, and a competitively charged plan.

We provide a Group Life Assurance policy for all colleagues from day one that will pay a lump sum amount of either two or four times their basic annual salary. Our Life Assurance policy will help to ensure that the financial futures of your family members are safeguarded. The lump sum payment can be used in any way the nominated beneficiary sees fit.

Our Lifestyle Savings scheme is where colleagues can access a fantastic range of offers and discounts from a huge collection of online and high-street retailers, all year round. From everyday savings, to travel deals, discounted gym memberships to money off the latest tech and fashion, and so much more.

We understand that our colleagues have their own priorities. With Flexible Benefits, colleagues get to tailor their benefits package by selecting the benefits that are most valuable to them, including buying up to five days’ extra holiday, dental insurance and critical illness cover. This means they are getting the most out of their overall benefits package.

We know that some people have challenges getting an appointment with their doctors and we believe that accessible healthcare is important. To help, we’ve partnered with BHSF to provide a Private GP helpline for all colleagues and their family members who live at the same address.

Colleagues who meet the eligibility criteria have the choice of either a car allowance or company funded vehicle to enable them to carry out their work efficiently and safely.

We provide Private Medical Insurance where colleagues meet the required eligibility criteria. Our Private Medical Insurance allows colleagues to access treatment quickly. This offers the best chance of recovering as quickly as possible and therefore returning to their normal lives as soon as possible. The policy also allows dependents to be covered, providing peace of mind in the event of treatment being required and as little inconvenience to family life as possible while treatment is quickly obtained.

Your health and wellbeing are important to us, we’ve teamed up with Medicash so you can claim money back towards the cost of your everyday healthcare, including dental treatment, optical care, prescription costs, physiotherapy and chiropody and much more.
