Wondering how we show you how much we care? Take a look at some of the way we support you to be the best you can be!

Hybrid & Flexible working

We’ll do everything we can to help you find a healthy work-life balance. Depending on the role people can sometimes work flexible work patterns, from home or part-time. We are always happy to explore options to help your work-life balance.

Employee Assistance Programme

You will have unlimited access to a 24-hour free, confidential telephone helpline. This service gives you free advice on a wide variety of issues such as legal advice, information and where appropriate, face-to-face counselling.

Tea, Coffee & Cake

Free tea, coffee and milk in our offices and shops and, more often than not, superb cakes and bakes from our generous volunteers and supporters.

Free Parking at Head Office

We offer free parking at our Head Office in Aylesbury and we try our best to make arrangements for our retail employees but unfortunately at some town centre locations we cannot offer this.

Keeping you Informed

Regular employee updates and a monthly e-bulletin to ensure employees feel involved, informed and listened to.

Pay

We regularly benchmark our salaries externally against the Public and Not for Profit sectors and offer a competitive salary to attract and retain great people.

Annual leave

When you join us, you’ll receive 33 days’ holiday a year (including bank holiday allowance). Your annual leave is pro-rata if you work part-time.

We also offer an additional day’s leave in October, ‘Florence Day, to mark the opening day of Florence Nightingale Hospice on 16th October 1989.

Sickness pay

If you become ill, you’re entitled to one month at full pay after 6 months, one month full pay and one month half pay after 12 months and two month’s full pay and two months half pay after 2 years.

Pension scheme
We top up your pension fund by matching any contributions you make up to 3% of your basic salary. That means if you contribute 3% of your salary then we will contribute 3% to your pension fund too. We work in partnership with Aegon so you can follow the value of your investments too.

Our ambition is to work together to ensure our employees, and volunteers, reflect the communities we serve.

We commit to employing talented people from all backgrounds and walks of life. Irrespective of gender, sexual orientation, marital or civil partnership status, age, race, colour, nationality, ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, gender re-assignment or whether you are pregnant.

We welcome applications from a wide range of candidates, including those with a background of offending or a criminal record. Having a criminal record doesn’t necessarily bar you from working at Florence Nightingale Hospice Charity – we’ll risk assess each situation on an individual basis.
