      Our Values


      Benefits

      Reward

      We offer a monthly commission of 30% boosted by a quarterly new business incentive alongside other spot bonuses.

      We also offer a Pension scheme, Cycle to Work scheme and Life insurance.

      Work / Life Balance

      Time off matters – We want you to have time to do more of what you enjoy. We have a fantastic 30 days annual leave allowance (plus bank holidays). This includes 3 days over Christmas & August Anywhere).

      Hybrid & Flexible – we valued this before Covid came along and so this isn’t new to us. We currently work 3 days in the office and 2 days at home. To make your home comfortable to work from we have an allowance towards setting up your home office . We are very focussed on the journey being as rewarding as the destination.  As such working hours are offered with flexible start and finish times.

      Training

      We have a personal training allowance for everyone so you can finally get the chance to do that course you have always talked about.

      Socials

      Individual performance always gets rewarded but we make a point of celebrating as a team. This includes a Quarterly Michelin Star lunch and you get to chose where!

      We Care About Balance – We make sure that there is fun along the way. So far we have been sailing, cooking, cycling, climbing, horse-racing, picnicking and we took everyone to Brussels for two nights of culture. A fantastic 2021 was celebrated with a trip to The Grove 5-star hotel.

      As if all of that wasn’t enough

      We have a well stocked office full of snacks & drinks and a fortnightly Thursday team lunch too.

      Finally, August Anywhere has just been launched!
