Our work benefits
How we support our team to do their best work
We foster a culture of trust that prioritises care and flexibility so that our employees are empowered to do meaningful work without disrupting a life /work balance. Here you can explore some of the benefits that we offer our staff.
1. Flexible working
Where possible, we accommodate our team’s flexible working requests to support flow between our careers and personal lives. This can include:
- working around school drop off and pick up or other family commitments
- working term time only
compressed hours
2. 25% wellbeing time
We know that keeping on top of our wellbeing is essential to staying productive and enjoying our work. That’s why we offer all staff 25% wellbeing time, a unique support measure that allows Artswork employees to take back up to 25% of their hours, whenever it’s needed.
It’s flexible, compassionate, and tailored to what wellbeing means for you. It’s not extra leave; it’s built-in time to keep our team feeling balanced and empowered.
3. SAGE Employee Assistance Programme
To further support our team’s wellbeing, every Artswork employee has access to the SAGE Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) a confidential support service available 24⁄7
This includes:
- Free access to counselling and emotional support
- Advice on financial and legal matters
- Guidance for mental health, stress and wellbeing
- Help with day-to-day challenges from family to finances
4. Investing in professional development
We support every team member to grow personally, professionally and creatively by providing each employee with an individual annual Continued Professional Development (CPD) budget, available from day one and carried forward year on year.
Our approach to wellbeing and development is rooted in our core values. We want every member of our team to feel seen and supported.
By embedding kindness, flexibility and trust into our everyday practices, we’re building a workplace where wellbeing and growth are a foundation. When we look after our Artswork community, we can create meaningful, lasting impact for the young people and communities we serve.
