Rewarding Your Commitment

Employees are the heart of Version 1 - we are a people business.

We have been driving success for our customers for more than twenty years not simply through the market leading technology solutions we provide – but through our people. Version 1 employees are a dynamic, forward-thinking, curious, ambitious group who together strive to be difference makers in all that they do.  So, we like to reward them with a range of benefits that enhance their experience and commitment. Below is listed just some of the many perks Version 1 provides our permanent employees.

Time Off: Supporting your moments that matter

  • Annual Leave
    Employees receive a generous annual leave allowance and up to five days can be carried forward each year if you want to save leave for a special occasion.
    Unpaid leave of up to thirteen weeks may also be taken.
  • Flexible Working
    Many of our employees choose to take advantage of the opportunity to work from home, either on an ad hoc basis or with a regular pattern. Many also work flexible hours, depending on what works for themselves and their customers.
  • Maternity/Paternity Leave
    We offer statutory maternity pay in line with your local office and after two years’ service, we offer enhanced six months’ paid maternity leave. We also provide two weeks full pay for new dads once probation is completed.
  • Shared Parental Leave
    This enable parents to share the period of leave that could have been taken as Maternity Leave. Local employment legislation applies here - our HR department can provide more information where required.
  • Wedding Leave
    We recognise this happy event by giving employees an extra three days annual leave to help them celebrate with family and friends.
  • Special Leave
    Additional leave is offered to employees upon a family bereavement or when it is needed in a crisis.

Life Assurance
If the worst should happen, you will be covered by Life Assurance. A minimum of twice your base salary applies as a Permanent employee.
Free Eye Tests
Employees spend a lot of time looking at screens. Therefore you are eligible for a free annual eye test and up to £45/€45 towards glasses.
Sick Leave
Version 1 understands that employees may be absent from work. All employees are eligible for paid sick leave once probation has been passed.
