Pension & Financial Support

Pension

It is important to save for the days ahead and we are proud to offer a company pension scheme.

A combined total of 8% of your monthly salary will be paid every month in your pension pot. This is made up of a contribution of 3% of the employer and 5% of the employee. You can increase your contribution if you wish, either by a % or a fixed sum monthly.

Speak to our People Team to learn more about how to enroll.

Financial Support for training

We offer financial support for training. If there is a course or qualification that you always wanted to do or believe will benefit your current job role, please speak to your line manager as we can offer financial support to gain the qualification.

Life ASSURANCE

We hope this is the one benefit that you will never have to take advantage of but in the unfortunate event that anything were to happen to you whilst, in our employment, this would provide peace of mind and a tax-free lump sum pay-out to your loved ones, helping to relieve money worries at a very difficult time
