How we work

We work wherever we’re most productive. In practice this means some of our staff work remotely or split their time between home and office. We’ve made our Swindon office a great place to be and we encourage people to use it. We have a staff kitchen, a variety of different workspaces for formal and informal collaboration, fully wired meeting rooms, excellent coffee and a dedicated prayer space. Co-workers who know each other work better together, and we’re keen to make that happen.

Your future

People love working for us. We have a Gold award from Investors in People and are rated Outstanding by Best Companies. We want to develop your skills and help you become all you can be. As well as bespoke courses that will expand your skills in specific areas, we offer all our staff access to the LinkedIn Learning platform and encourage them to take advantage of the regular Wednesday training slot. We also have staff seminars and regular All Staff Gatherings to share information and ideas.

Our five values:

Prayerful – we're honest, attentive and humble, because we work in the sight of God

Imaginative – we're experimental, creative and dynamic, because we're made in the Creator's image 

Bold – we're willing to work hard and face hard questions, because we trust each other

Skilful – we study, learn and practise, making the effort to serve others with our best

Joyful – we enjoy our work and seek to build others up, because we're designed to flourish together

 

Your benefits

We want our employees to know how much they’re valued. We have a generous pension scheme and a ‘Perks At Work’ employee scheme with a wide range of benefits, including a discount shopping site to save money on everyday living expenses. Other benefits include a Health Cash Plan, three days a year paid time for volunteering, and an Employee Assistance Programme offering confidential telephone and face-to-face counselling.
