Rewards and Benefits

Our salary structure is simple and consistent. When we hire for a role, we check we’re paying the going rate and then we review it again every three years.

We all have busy lives, so being able to work in modern, agile ways that allow us to balance our unique work and personal responsibilities is really important. For every colleague, we consider flexible working and different working patterns. 

Most desk-based roles work in a blended way to support our customers, colleagues and the business. You and your team decide how and where you will work, including at home, in the field and other remote working options, enabling you to take an agile approach.

Annual leave is vital to a healthy work-life balance. We offer 26 days annual leave, rising to 31 days after three years, and bank holidays (pro-rata for part-time). You can buy and sell up to a week of leave each year. We also gift you a day’s leave for your birthday.

We offer enhanced family leave and pay including maternity, paternity and adoption. We have flexible working options for all colleagues and a range of special leave entitlements to support colleagues with dependents.

Convenient and secure savings and low interest loans are available through the credit union, a financial and co-operative owned and run by members. They encourage savings and borrowing based on what you can afford.

We encourage sustainable travel and have a range of options depending on roles. For posts with significant business miles, we offer a car payment and 35p mileage rate. All other roles will be able to claim business mileage. Trade colleagues will have the use of a vehicle.

We give you an additional monetary amount every year towards a range of benefits including private medical insurance, health cash plan upgrade, health screening, technology purchases, charity giving, buying annual leave or you can take it as cash.

A welcoming and supportive environment at Karbon is enhanced with a selection of benefits to support colleague wellbeing, including access to the Wellness Cloud – an online support programme - the Headspace app, wellbeing events and campaigns, health cash plan, counselling services and an employee assistance helpline.

We’re committed to investing in your personal and professional development with opportunities to grow and fulfil your potential and gain experience and exposure. These include funded education, apprenticeships, annual professional subscription, shadowing, mentoring and coaching.
