Benefits of working for us
There are a huge number of staff benefits you can access as an employee of Shared Lives Plus. We recently carried out a benchmarking exercise through one of our charity partners and are pleased to say we came out in the top two in our sector! All employees benefit from a generous leave allowance, company pension scheme (with employer contributions), online discounts and deals, even a day off on your birthday! But this is just the beginning – here is a full list of all our staff perks.
