Our Benefits

Pay

At Consensus, we believe in paying our employees fairly and competitively. That's why we commit to paying at or above the National Living Wage, regardless of age. Plus, our career ladder pay range means that as you progress in your role and demonstrate excellent performance, your pay will increase accordingly.

Funded DBS Checks

As a provider supporting people with learning disabilities, autism and complex needs, DBS checks are an essential requirement of your employment with us. That's why we cover the cost of all DBS checks when colleagues join us, and again through our three yearly rechecking process, ensuring that you can join us, and continue to work with us, without any financial burden.

High Street Discounts

We know that our employees work hard, which is why we want to make it easier for you to save money and enjoy life outside of work. With our Hapi App, you'll have access to instant Everyday Discounts from a range of retailers. From groceries to fashion, you'll be able to save money on your everyday purchases.

Blue Light Card

We value our employees and want to show our appreciation by giving you access to even more discounts. That's why we pay for Blue Light Cards for all our colleagues. You'll have access to discounts from a variety of large national retailers, as well as local businesses. From holidays to car purchases, you'll be able to save money on a wide range of products and services.

Pension

We care about your future and want to help you plan for it. That's why all our colleagues are assessed for enrolment into our pension scheme after three months of employment. You'll be able to contribute to your pension, as will Consensus, and have peace of mind knowing that you're prepared for your retirement.

Life Assurance

We understand that life is unpredictable, and we want to support our employees and their families in any way we can. That's why we offer life assurance to all our colleagues. In the event of your death, a lump sum of twice your annual salary will be paid to a benefactor of your choice.

Wagestream

We believe in giving our employees greater control over their finances. With Wagestream, you'll be able to track what you earn in real-time and gain instant access to up to 40% of your earned wages as you go. This means you'll have greater flexibility when it comes to managing your finances.

Holidays

We understand the importance of work-life balance and want to help you achieve it. That's why we offer a minimum holiday entitlement of 28 days (including bank holidays), rising to 33 days with long service. Plus, if you work a recognised bank holiday, you'll receive enhanced pay.

Cycle to Work Scheme

We care about the environment and want to help our employees make a positive impact. With our Cycle to Work Scheme, you'll be able to achieve unbeatable savings of up to 42% on bikes and accessories. Plus, you'll be able to enjoy the benefits of cycling to work, such as improved fitness and reduced carbon emissions.

Technology Scheme

We want our employees to have access to the latest technology. That's why we offer a Technology Scheme, allowing you to purchase the latest tech products and spread the cost over a 12-month period directly from your salary. This means you can stay up to date with the latest tech without breaking the bank.

Health & Wellbeing

At Consensus, we truly believe that your wellbeing matters. We are committed to investing in your financial, physical, mental, and social wellbeing through a comprehensive range of benefits. You'll have access to our helpline for emotional and practical support, financial wellness tools, and mental health first aiders who can provide guidance when you need it most. We also offer other wellbeing services to ensure that you're able to take care of yourself and be your best self every day.

Virtual GP

Your health is important, and at Consensus, you'll have access to a virtual GP service 24/7/365. With this benefit, you can receive unlimited advice, reassurance, and where appropriate, even a diagnosis from a qualified medical professional without having to leave your home. Whether you have a question about a new symptom or need advice on managing an ongoing condition, you can count on our virtual GP service to be there for you whenever you need it.

Reward & Recognition

We believe that hard work and dedication should be recognised and rewarded. That's why we encourage a culture of recognition at Consensus. We celebrate our colleagues' achievements through our colleague wall of fame and offer enhanced annual leave and high street vouchers for those who have reached long service milestones. Our reward and recognition program is just one of the many ways we show our appreciation for your contributions to our team.

Professional Subscriptions

Where professional subscription fees are a requirement for your role, Consensus will reimburse these costs. This benefit allows you to retain those all-important memberships, invest in your own professional development, and ensure the people we support receive high-quality care and support from our expert colleagues.

Refer a Friend

Do you have a friend who is looking for a great place to work? At Consensus, we want to reward you for spreading the word. When you refer a friend who is successfully hired, you'll receive a financial bonus as a thank you. Not only will you be helping a friend find a fulfilling job, but you'll also be helping to grow our team and make Consensus an even better place to work.
