Our staff are the reason we are able to make a difference in people’s lives. We offer a range of benefits and rewards to support them with their wellbeing, their day-to-day lives, and their professional development.
Enhanced pay and leave
As a Real Living Wage employer, we want all our colleagues to feel financially supported. Working at Change Grow Live gives you access to:
Workplace pension scheme. After three months you will be enrolled into the Change Grow Live pension scheme and 5% of your salary will go towards your pension. Change Grow Live will contribute an additional 3% to help you invest for your retirement.
Enhanced maternity pay which includes 90% of your average earnings for the first 6 weeks of your maternity leave, as well as a lump sum of £4,000.

Enhanced partner pay which is 2 weeks at full pay.
Professional Registration Payments. If your role requires you to have a professional registration you can reclaim the cost of this.
Life Assurance Scheme. Should the worst happen, we have a life assurance scheme available to ensure there is support for your loved ones. This pays three times your annual salary tax free to your nominated beneficiaries.
