Staff benefits and perks

In addition to learning and development opportunities, you will enjoy a number of great benefits and perks when you join MHCLG. Here are some of them.

Flexible and remote working

We support work-life balance with a range of flexible working options, such as part-time, term time-only working, compressed hours and job sharing. We also offer hybrid working – our colleagues normally spend at least 60% of their working time in the office they’re based in, with multiple office locations available across the UK.

Generous pension scheme

Average employer contribution of 28.97% as part of the Civil Service pension scheme, one of the best workplace pension schemes in the UK.

Annual leave

25 days plus bank holidays. 1 additional day of leave for each year of service, up to 5 extra days. Plus 1 additional ‘privilege day’ each year.

Family-friendly policies

One of the UK’s best parental leave packages. We offer maternity, adoption or shared parental leave of up to 26 weeks at full pay (if you have at least one year's continuous service in the Civil Service), followed by 13 weeks at statutory pay and a further 13 weeks unpaid leave, and paternity leave of 12 days at full pay.

Employee discount scheme

We reward our staff with an employee discount scheme, which offers savings on a range of products and services.

Volunteering

We believe in making a positive impact beyond the workplace amongst the communities we serve. That’s why we offer up to 6 days of fully paid volunteering leave per year.
