Annual leave
You'll start with 25 days per leave year (not including bank holidays) and this will increase with service, up to 30 days. Annual leave for part-time staff is prorated.
Cashback and discount scheme
With our employee cashback and discount scheme, you can earn cashback through online shopping on things like holidays, car insurance and fashion. You can also save on in-store shopping with discounts and vouchers for major retailers.
Employee assistance programme
To aid your wellbeing, we offer a confidential support service concerning a range of work and personal issues. Assistance comes in the form of a 24/7 telephone service that's open 365 days per year, and face-to-face counselling if required.
Learning and development
We're committed to your development. There's a wide range of online and face-to-face courses offered internally, allowing you to grow with the charity and achieve your goals.
Pension scheme
Our pension scheme is tiered with contributions based on your level of post. You can increase your contributions but this won’t be matched. We offer both the relief at source and salary exchange method.
| Grade | Your contribution | Stroke Association contribution |
|---|---|---|
| A to D | 3% | 5% |
| E and up | 3% |
6% |
Due to legislation, the pension scheme is not available for staff based in Jersey or the Isle of Man.
