We offer a range of benefits to employees.
Family-friendly and work-life balance policies
We regularly review our policies to ensure they reflect the changing lifestyle patterns of our staff with family or other commitments. We offer a number of posts on a part-time basis and flexible working arrangements.
Annual leave
We offer an above sector average annual leave entitlement of 30 days per year (pro rata for part-time staff), and three fixed 'extra' days holiday to be taken at Christmas in addition to statutory Bank Holidays.
Pension scheme
We offer a competitive pension scheme where your contributions are enhanced by NCB—up to 8%. After three years of service, you’ll receive an enhanced employer contribution of 10% when you contribute 5%.
Employee Assistance Programme
We provide a confidential external advice service run by qualified advisors.
Learning and development
We offer a wide range of training and development opportunities for those within post.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
We are committed to promoting equality of opportunity. This is reflected in our work and employment practices.
We support and lead Open to All - a campaign to encourage charities to only require degrees from applicants when strictly necessary for a role.
Staff recruitment is carried out by a panel and is based on the selection criteria designed for each post.
