Employee benefits

At the MS Trust we offer a range of benefits to employees:

You will start with 25 days (28 days for manager roles) of annual leave, plus bank holidays. This increases by one day for each year of service up to a maximum of 30 days (pro rata for part time employees).

Company pension with enhanced employer contribution of 5% once employees have completed their probationary period. A salary sacrifice scheme is available.

We offer a tax-free death in service benefit of four times your basic salary, should the unthinkable happen and you die while in our employment (subject to age limit).

We offer 12 weeks fully paid maternity leave and six weeks fully paid paternity and adoption pay.

Employees are entitled to sick pay at a rate of four weeks per year in the first year of employment, increasing by one week in each subsequent year to a maximum of eight weeks in any one year.

We have a learning and development policy to ensure all employees meet their full potential, with an allocated training budget for each member of staff.

We provide a confidential EAP to assist employees with work or personal issues.

We offer flexible working with approximately 40% of time being spent in the office.

One paid day off a year to volunteer for the MS Trust or another voluntary organisation, which will compliment or add value to your role.

We offer a cycle to work scheme, which allows members of staff to purchase a new bike through a salary sacrifice arrangement. This allows the staff member to save tax, whilst also spreading the payments over the course of a year.

There is free onsite parking.

We are situated in Letchworth town centre, in a beautiful listed building, only five minutes' walk from the train station and local buses. We are only 30 minutes from London or Cambridge by rail.

We offer season ticket loans to aid members of staff with the upfront costs of season tickets for travelling to work.

The MS Trust is proud to be a Living Wage employer. This means that we are recognised by the Living Wage Foundation as paying a higher level salary than the minimum wage set by the UK government, calculated in relation to the cost of living.
