Benefits

• Hybrid Working
  We very much believe in and encourage work life balance, and therefore offer the opportunity for you to work flexibly and from home should the nature of your role allow. We love to see you on‑site though as a wee informal chat is good for us all, although we don’t have “rules” dictating when you should come in, this is up to you, your team leader, and some common sense!
• Holiday Purchase Scheme
  We know how important holidays are for us all so if you need more than the 32 days standard there is the opportunity to purchase up to 2 additional weeks, repaid through payroll.
• Workplace Pension
  We encourage you to contribute to your pension and we also contribute generously. We enrol you into a Workplace Pension scheme with AEGON ARC and pension deductions are made via the salary exchange basis.
• Private Medical Insurance
  As well as covering the costs of private healthcare, Vitality encourages good health and offers rewards and discounts for doing so. The cover offers advanced cancer cover, direct access to both mental health and musculoskeletal treatment and an online GP. No need to work about current or previous health concerns as medical history is disregarded and you can also add family members to your cover too should you wish.
• Life Assurance
  For your peace of mind, we offer life cover – a tax‑free lump sum is paid out to your nominated person/s should you die while employed by Linn Products Ltd. There are no medical or activity related exclusions and no medical underwriting is required.
• Linn Gym
  There is a fabulous new gym onsite, and we encourage you to use it. We also have boxing and Metafit classes to help keep you fit physically and mentally.
• Canteen
  When you are onsite, we have a highly subsidised canteen, making sure that you are fuelled for the day. Every day offers a different main meal, in addition to breakfasts, soups, sandwiches and healthy options too. We offer free cereal, porridge, and fruit to ensure you start the day well nourished! When the weather allows, we also have BBQs in our lovely grounds.
• Charity
  It is important to Linn to give back and we have our Linn Charity Foundation which not only donates to the local community and charities, we also encourages our colleague’s charity fundraising efforts by matching whatever they raise. Furthermore, we have fun filled Christmas charity days, Family charity days and team fundraising activities such as the Santa Dash and Kiltwalk. All of which we encourage everyone to get involved in. Our colleagues also select which charity we should support so if there is a cause that is close to your heart you can nominate them to be our chosen charity.
• Development
  We firmly believe in enabling and support everyone to be the best that they can be and that is why we offer continuous development opportunities open to all. Whether this be technical, leadership skills or professional qualifications we are here to support your development and your career path.
• Cycle to Work
  Some other great perks that we offer include a Cycle to work scheme where we buy you a bike and the repayments are taken tax efficiently from us through payroll, saving you up to 42%. If you wish to cycle to work and do your bit for the environment, we have a bike shelter to protect your bike from the Scottish weather.
• Staff Discount
  If, like us you love your music and appreciate the amazing sound of our beautiful products you will have the opportunity to purchase a Linn product at a hugely discounted price and you can repay this interest‑free through payroll.
• Social
  We love a party at Linn so at least twice a year we put on a staff party with food, drinks entertainment and transport all covered. Great fun is had by all!
