That’s why we actively support our employees’ career progression and wellbeing by providing:
- benefits and rewards
- learning and development opportunities

- opportunities to contribute to community
- a caring, supportive environment led by our company values.
Benefits
From an award-winning pension scheme and flexible working to an onsite gym and career development – there are some great reasons to work at People’s Partnership.
What we offer
Our award-winning pension scheme, The People’s Pension is one of the UK’s largest master trust pensions. This means we can offer you a very competitive employer pension contribution of up to 14% (the minimum amount most employers can offer is 3%).
As an accredited real living wage employer, we reward a hard day’s work with a fair day’s pay. Plus we offer an employee bonus scheme based on company performance, individual performance and external market practice.
We offer 4.5 times your salary for life insurance cover and we have a group income protection scheme.
We provide a healthcare cash plan for all employees.
Our parental policies include enhanced maternity/adoption pay, enhanced paternity/adoption pay, parental leave and time off for dependents – once you’ve been with the company for a certain amount of time.
Your learning and development is important to us. We’ll help you grow your skills and experience.
We’re happy to provide a loan to an employee to enable them to purchase an annual season ticket for travel between work and home on public transport.
We have a staff restaurant onsite providing hot and cold meals and snacks at a subsidised rate.
We support charities and local initiatives by offering volunteering days to spend with your charity of choice and we enable payroll giving with tax relief.
We have a well-equipped gym on site which employees can use for free.
Save money on a new bike. Our Ride-to-Work scheme is a tax-free benefit giving great savings on a new bike and accessories from Evans Cycles.
As well as our onsite gym, there’s a choice of clubs for sports fans (football, golf and squash to name a few).
Plus there’s a big social side to People’s Partnership – we hold quiz nights (often raising money for our chosen charity), we’ve organised indoor go-karting, had many company barbecues, and on a hot day we’ve been known to treat our people to an ice cream.

Embracing diversity and inclusion (D&I) is not just a corporate initiative, a diverse and inclusive workforce brings together individuals with a multitude of perspectives, experiences, and backgrounds. This diverse mix fosters innovation, creativity, and effective problem-solving. Moreover, we understand that a company that values and nurtures diversity, attracts and retains top talent from various walks of life, contributing to a dynamic and thriving team.
