In return, we offer an excellent package of benefits including:

• Employer paid health cash plan
• Salary sacrifice scheme for cars and bikes
• 26 days annual leave per year rising to 34 days - dependent on length of service (plus flexi-time and option to buy further annual leave)
• Membership to the Local Government Pension Scheme
• Discounts at a range of major high street brands and the two leisure centres in the district
