This a full time role with a salary of £80,465.21, 25 days annual leave plus Bank Holidays. We offer a reward package to suit everyone. At YH, you can claim back for prescriptions, eye tests and more with our cash plan, make the most of a variety of retail discounts and take advantage of our pension scheme where we’ll match your contributions up to 9%, just to name a few. Our people’s health and wellbeing are one of our top priorities, and you can make the most of our readily available wellbeing support package. This includes access to a library of free fitness classes, as well as an instant My GP service and free counselling sessions with a trained professional. Now you’re really interested?
At YH, we’re actively building a working environment that’s inclusive as well as diverse, where everyone can contribute their best work and be themselves.
