Big holiday planned? We believe it’s important for our people to have a good balance in their home-work lives. To enable this we give the option to purchase up to five days additional leave to give flexibility on those occasions where our generous holiday entitlement isn’t enough.
Old Mill believes that flexible working can increase staff motivation, promote work-life balance, reduce employee stress and improve performance and productivity. We will provide you with flexibility in the way you want to work as far as we possibly can and consider all flexible working requests. More than one in five of our people currently work flexibly including part time working and more still have informal working agreements to include working from home and other alternate working patterns.
On average our employees can save up to £1,000 a year with all kinds of perks, discounts and exclusive offers on everything from mobiles, gifts and utilities to flowers, electronics, food and cinema tickets. Thanks to these great discounts, you can transform your wardrobe, make exciting plans for your next holiday or relax and unwind with exclusive offers on experience days, leisure attractions and West End shows.
We love the festive period at Old Mill and want you to enjoy the time at home with your friends and family. Not only do we close the offices at this time but we also offer an extra half day on both Christmas Eve and New Year’s eve so you can save your holiday allowance for those special trips.
A game of ping pong or table football over lunch? Why not. At Old Mill we have worked hard to make our offices great places to work with ping pong or table football in the staff rooms and of course that all important unlimited tea and coffee! Every Old Mill office has a social team and they make sure we get together regularly over a variety of different activities. Recent get-togethers have included cocktail making lessons, off roading, an escape room and a trip to the races. Any excuse to have fun!
We can’t not mention our love of cake. So either brush off your baking skills and enter one of the regular bake off competitions or head to the breakout rooms where more often than not you can find a slice of something delicious.
