• Discretionary Bonus
• Enhanced Pension Scheme
• Life Assurance
• EAP (Employee Assistant Plan)
• Health plans, wellbeing support, free flujabs and eye‑care vouchers
• Extensive discounts from loved brands and major retailers
• 25 holidays + bank holidays with 1 additional volunteering day (*pro‑rated based on contracted hours)
