Welcome to benefits at Ben!

All UK employees are auto-enrolled onto our comprehensive Private Medical Insurance (PMI) scheme with Freedom Health. The scheme is fully funded by Ben, and our team can choose to cover the cost of their family members too

Health Cash Plans are a type of health insurance that can help you budget for everyday health needs and provide reimbursements for the expected and unexpected.

You can self-fund a cover level with Medicash that suits you best and claim cash back on a variety of different treatments, including optical, dental, physiotherapy and more.

We take wellbeing and mental health very seriously here at Ben, funding access to leading mental health support via our partner, Oliva.

Through them, our team can access:

• 1:1 mental health support any time they need, with 6 sessions funded by Ben each year
• Content & videos on various relevant topics to support their mental wellbeing

Our team has the choice of two leading providers to support with their physical wellbeing:

Wellhub provides access to multiple additional apps related to wellbeing, such as Meditopia to practice mindfulness. Beyond this, they offer a tiered subscription service to access large discounts on gym memberships.

Classpass provides access to thousands of top-rated, gyms, fitness studios, salons and spas at a discounted rate. It’s a subscription-based service where employee can select a set number of credits to use every month.

Through our partnership with Muhdo, our employees can access discounted Health Testing to support their overall health & wellbeing. This includes epigenetic & DNA testing to provide health based insights into things such as fitness characteristics, injury risks, metabolism and more.

We've partnered with a global provider who offer discounted access cancer screening for our team.

This encourages a proactive approach to managing cancer — helping with education, awareness and prevention.

We’ve partnered with Crispin Spears to provide discounted access to travel insurance. Whether making the most of our ‘work from abroad’ policy or enjoying some well-deserved time-off, the team can easily access the cover they need.

We partner with 3 different cycle to work providers to best support our team - covering standard road bikes, e-bikes and bike sharing programmes. 

They each offer salary sacrifice schemes to split the cost of a bike and benefit from tax savings. Choose from Cyclescheme.co.uk, DASH rides, or Cyclesaver.

Our Techscheme means that our team can make savings on their tech and home products — including laptops, phones, smart health, white goods, gaming and more. They can spread the cost over a 12 month period via Salary Sacrifice.

We’ve partnered with 2 leading providers to make it easier for our team to lease an electric vehicle. Both Tusker and Octopus offer Salary Sacrifice EV schemes which allow our employees to spread the cost of their lease and make a tax saving — plus the added bonus of reducing their carbon footprint!

Our employees can access thousands of unique employee discounts across our UK and DE based partners. These discounts cover a range categories - from household appliances, to restaurants & groceries

We've partnered with Furthr to make it easy for our team to do their bit for the planet. This means using their Ben Flex allowance to contribute to climate projects such as forest restorations and more

We partner with Enjoy Benefits to support parents with nursery costs, providing huge savings off our employees’ nursery fees via the Salary Sacrifice scheme.

Any children up to the age of 5 can be covered, and you can use the benefit at a nursery of your choice.

Life insurance helps gives families financial protection if the worst were to happen whilst someone was working with us. It allows our team to leave behind an amount of money to help their loved ones if they were to pass away.

Through our partnership with Aviva, Ben funds 1x payout of your salary, with the option to voluntarily increase this cover too.

Through our partnership with Curam, our team can access up to 30% discounts on Elder Care and find a carer their family will love.

Curam also provide access to webinars & workshops to provide emotional support when needed too.

All Ben employees have an annual leaning & development allowance to support with growth in their role. This could be for a training course, content subscription, or professional coaching sessions via our partner Oliva.

We also provide 3 days of paid study leave each year to support the team on their learning journey.

Our equity compensation programme is designed to align the interests of our team with the long-term success of Ben. We want our team to have a stake in Ben that is valuable today and will be much more valuable in the future — this means that all employees receive equity based on their role and level, so we all own what we build together!

We know that education is a key part of financial wellbeing, which is why we’ve partnered with the following providers:

Octopus Money provides 1 free coaching session for our team, plus further discounted access to a full 1:1 financial coaching plan.

Money Guided is a financial management app that promotes a better understanding and sense of control over your finances

We have an awesome team and really value spending time together outside of work. To support this, every team has a quarterly budget to spend on doing something fun — this could be anything from a team dinner, to Go Karting!

On top of this, we host an after-work get together at our London office every other Thursday. We encourage the team to come together for things like a trip to the pub, quiz night, sports day and more.
