We are proud to offer a broad range of benefits to all permanent members of staff. Some are your traditional benefits like a bonus, which we’re proud to have paid every year since we were founded. Others are just nice things we think everyone deserves – but we figured we’d better put them down here for you to see too:
- Optional private healthcare insurance – including mental health support and telephone access to GPs
- 4.30pm Friday finishes
- Bonus – we’ve paid bonuses every year since we were founded. These are are discretionary and based on performance, but have been in the region of 8% of salary
- 25 days holiday
- The ‘firstlight fortnight’ – an additional two weeks of paid leave in your fifth year
- Three in Three – the option of a three week break available in an employee’s third year, and then every three years thereafter.
- Free Employee Assistance Programme which offers a 24-hour helpline to support with life, legal and financial issues, access to telephone or face to face counselling and lots of online resources
- Enhanced parental leave pay
- Optional flu jabs to support staff through winter
- Regular social events, plus our annual, two-night Christmas trip away to a destination within Europe
- Pension contributions
- Employee referral scheme
- New business finder’s fee for SAMs and below
- Cycle to Work salary sacrifice scheme
- Edenred discount scheme
- Eye care (eye test and contribution to glasses)
- Loans for travel season tickets if you need them
- A monthly mobile phone allowance
- A day of CSR leave per year, to undertake a charitable initiative of your choice
- Training programme with internal and external training tailored to each individual
- Closure of the office between Christmas and New Year, with the option of being on a rota instead of using annual leave (this equates to a couple of extra days off a year!)
- Breakfast cereal, bread, fruit and sweets available, along with a selection of teas and coffee. That’s if you can resist the temptation of Pret next door.
