• Discounted hotel stays at hotels in the Fuller’s Family.
• Access to ‘My Fuller’s’ – our online benefits platform where you can make savings at hundreds of retailers and access discounted gym memberships, cinema tickets, and much more.
• Healthcare Cash Plan – after one year with us, you will have access to a 24-hour GP service and the ability to claim your money back for dentist and eyecare appointments.
• Full induction and training.
• The option to receive up to 35% of your earnings as you earn them with Wagestream, so you won’t always need to wait until payday.
