We’ve partnered with Neyber to provide all colleagues with financial education and toolkits from budgeting for having a child or moving house, to debt or gambling support. They can also work with you to look at consolidating debt to make each month less stressful. As well as us topping up your pension contributions once you have been automatically enrolled, you can also get specialist support to gain advice around consolidating pensions and how to make sure you are retirement ready when the time is right, using Aegon Assist.

Who doesn’t love that feeling of being appreciated? That’s why we love our eCards on Grab which are available for all colleagues to send to one another! And it doesn’t stop there, we also have regular and annual award schemes to recognise our colleagues and teams that go the extra mile for each other and our customers. Our people make us brilliant, so we celebrate your commitment through our Long Service Award scheme and on top of all of that, EVERY employee has the opportunity to earn a bonus!

Our customers rely on us to understand their trade and that’s why we work hard to make sure we know our stuff. New starters receive a warm welcome to Buildbase and are supported through their induction to make sure they get up to speed as quickly as possible. This support comes in several different ways: you will agree a personal development plan with your line manager, meet other new starters at our induction event and have access to a wide range of training and development opportunities through “My Learning”, our training system. Your learning doesn’t stop there as we offer many recognised qualifications through “Building for Your Future”, our internal training academy. Whether it’s Maths & English, Customer Service, Sales Development, Management or Leadership you could find yourself bagging a qualification that really showcases your talent.
