Benefits

We have developed a number of schemes to help us develop into a leading charity organisation and an employer of choice.  Some of these include:

Contractual - Benefits

  • Competitive salaries – our rates of pay are in line with the market rate for the not for profit sector
  • Full time working hours – 35 per week
  • Group Personal Pension Plan – 2.5 times the employees contribution up to a maximum of 12.5% pensionable salary
  • Life insurance (Death in Service benefit) 4 times the annual salary (after a six month qualifying period)
  • Generous leave entitlement – up to 30 days (plus bank holidays, pro rata’d for part-time employees).  

Non contractual – Benefits

  • Interest Free Season Ticket loan
  • Child Care Vouchers
  • Training and development - investing formally in on-the-job training and developing a programme focussed on helping all staff work more efficiently and effectively, which in turn generates a greater sense of involvement and commitment to the organisation
  • Employee Assistance Programme - providing a support mechanism designed to help with practical problems and the general welfare of staff
  • Work-life balance – we operate a flexi-time working scheme.  This system allows staff to work their 35 hours per week as flexibly as possible.  It also gives the staff the opportunity to accrue hours to take as leave later in the accounting period.
