    We use an independent company to benchmark our salaries, to ensure they’re competitive against industry standards. And we also conduct regular performance-related pay reviews.

  • Agile and flexible working

    As a business, we’re moving to a more agile working model, which means for some roles we’re introducing the opportunity to work offsite or at home. And, if it works for you and for the business, we’re also open to discussing flexible working arrangements.

  • AWE Life Insurance

    We also provide a life insurance benefit for all employees, aged up to and including 74. This means that, in the event of your death, a lump sum death-in-service benefit of four-times your salary is payable.

  • The AWE Group Personal Pension

    Upon being enrolled in the pension plan, you’ll pay a percentage of your salary into the pension each month. It’s flexible, so you can increase or decrease the amount you pay into the plan at any time. The Company will also make a contribution to your pension on your behalf.
