Where 'You' Matter

Alongside ensuring our people can thrive both personally and professionally, having fun is one of our core values, which is why throughout the year our Social Committee organises a range of events from away days to staff parties to BBQs to charity events, our team gets the balance right. We pride ourselves on creating a fun and enjoyable atmosphere to work in. It's no coincidence that we are a two-time Employer of the Year and recipients of awards from Best Companies.

To support our commitment to employer well-being we are an accredited Living Wage Employer. This means we have voluntarily gone beyond the government's minimum or National Living Wage standards to ensure that our team members receive a wage that truly reflects the cost of living.

Flexible working

Our people make a difference wherever they work. We know that everybody works differently and that our staff have a wide range of commitments outside of work. This is why we proudly offer flexible and hybrid working where possible to ensure that you can maintain a healthy work/life balance.

We also understand that family is everything, and for parents we offer contracts that are tailored to suit your needs so that your work life never takes over your family life.
