As we move further into the New Year, you may have been looking for that new start, at a new company, in a new role.

You may have even got to interview stage with more than one job offer on the table to decide between, and when deciding on what job role to settle on, there are many deciding factors - which for some people are THE PERKS!

A "Job Perk" by definition, is an extra advantage or additional benefit on top of your standard salary offer and basic benefits, provided by the company to increase employee retention and satisfaction.

Once upon a time, perks would generally consist of things such as:

• Pension

• Holidays

• Bonuses (Monthly / Annually)

• Company Car / Car Allowance

• Healthcare

However, these days companies are offering more and more "Perks", with an extensive list including things like:

• Hybrid working options

• Mental wellbeing support

• Gym memberships

• Childcare assistance / Family leave

• Flexible hours

• Extra paid time off

• Employee discounts

• Insurances

• Complimentary lunch / free food

So as you can see the list goes on and on, with lots to consider when you're making that final decision.
