Benefits

Holidays and flexible working

No matter what level you’re at when you join us, you’ll enjoy 34 days of annual leave per year, including public holidays. You can buy up to 10 extra days every year if you choose to, giving you even more flexibility. We also support flexible working across our business, so you can work with your manager to find a routine that fits your individual life circumstances. And because we know things don’t always go to plan, we offer emergency day passes for those times when life throws you a curveball.

Money and financial planning

To protect your financial future, we make a generous pension contribution on your behalf. You can also buy shares in SSE at a discounted rate, giving you the option to share in our success. Everyone gets free access to an award-winning third-party provider of financial education. Plus, you’ll enjoy a wide range of discounts in your favourite shops, and technology loans to help with any big digital purchases.

Health and wellbeing

We genuinely care about each other at SSE and make our people’s wellbeing a priority. Our employee assistance programme offers free and confidential counselling 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Our people can also access discounted private healthcare from Bupa. And because we know that SSE people care about the communities they serve, we offer everyone a paid day away from their usual job to volunteer as part of the SSE Volunteering Programme.

Travel and transport

We all have a part to play in the journey to net zero. That’s why SSE provides benefits that make it easier for our employees to make positive travel choices. We offer an interest-free salary advance to cover public transport season tickets. We’re also a proud member of the Cycle to Work scheme.
