Rewarding you

As a high performing colleague, you’ll benefit from: 

Being rewarded for your contribution 
A performance-based bonus scheme that recognises and rewards your impact. 

Time to recharge, your way
We offer generous wellbeing benefits, including between 25 and 30 days’ holiday, depending on your role. If you start with 25 days, this increases over time to 30. Plus, you can ‘buy’ up to 10 extra days each year, giving you even more choice. 

A highly competitive pension 
You’ll also be enrolled into our Nationwide Group Personal Pension, our highly competitive contribution scheme. We contribute up to 16% to help you build a strong foundation for retirement. 

We’re proud of how our colleagues come together to put customers at the heart of everything we do. Collaboration matters – and we make space for it.

If you're office-based, you'll work at least two days per week in the office, or 40% if you're part-time. If you're branch-based, you'll be on-site, supporting customers face-to-face.

When we come together, we create an engaging environment where ideas flow, learning happens, and connections grow.

We also offer a range of flexible working options and support tools, all designed to help you thrive and grow your career.

Celebrating great work is part of who we are.

We shine a light on colleagues who live and breathe our customer first behaviours. Because when we recognise commitment, effort and talent – we empower everyone to be their best.

We celebrate success in meaningful ways. From everyday appreciation and milestone moments like work anniversaries, to our prestigious Annual Awards, where we honour those who go above and beyond for customers, communities and society.

When you feel your best, you do your best work. That’s why we’re committed to supporting your wellbeing, every step of the way.

Here’s how we help take care of you:

Private medical insurance 
All colleagues have access to private healthcare, either fully funded or available through our salary sacrifice scheme. You can also choose from a range of comprehensive health assessments at competitive rates.

Employee assistance programme 
A free, confidential service offering counselling, wellbeing support, legal advice and debt guidance.

Life assurance 
Peace of mind for you and your loved ones, with cover of up to 8x your basic salary in the event of your death.

When life events happen, we're there for you. From industry-leading family-friendly policies through to carers leave and eldercare support, we know that supporting our people when it really matters is the right thing to do.

Here are just some of the ways we support you:

Wellhub

Membership of the Nationwide Group Staff Union (NGSU)
Dedicated to making Nationwide an even better place to work by acting as the voice of employees, ensuring that their concerns are heard and addressed.

Supporting our people is more than a policy – it’s a promise.

We know that life doesn’t stand still – and when it matters most, we’re here for you.
