This could include flexibility with regards to office attendance, location, and working pattern. We're proud to be a Disability Confident Leader.

An annual performance-related bonus. Share schemes including free shares. Benefits you can adapt to your lifestyle, such as discounted shopping. 30 days' holiday, with bank holidays on top.
