In return we offer:

• Work-life balance – 37.5 hours per week, hybrid working from our Warrington or Portsmouth offices with a level of flexibility that enables you to have a good work-life balance
• 25 days’ holiday plus bank holidays and a day off for your birthday (FTE)
• Wellbeing support – market leading EAP including 24/7 advice line and 6 sessions of counselling for you and your immediate family, paid leave when you need it most (company sick pay, time off for medical appointments, emergency dependent leave, compassionate leave and fertility treatment leave)
