What we offer
As well as helping some of the world’s most vulnerable children and young people, we offer some great perks:
- Time out. You’ll start with 25 days holiday per year to recharge the batteries. After three years, this will increase by an extra day per year until you reach a relaxing 30 days leave.
- Pension. We offer a pension contribution of 6% of annual salary.
- Birthday leave and ‘Railway Children Day’. You’ll get two additional days of annual leave in your birthday month and around Christmas time.
- A culture we’re proud of. Driven by our CEO, family values are at the heart of our culture and make Railway Children an incredible place to work.
- Flexible working environment and home working. It’s one of the reasons why our staff retention is so impressive!
