Employee Benefits
Rewarding your commitment. From financial security to personal growth, we're here to support you.
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. 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.
Below is listed just some of the many perks Version 1 provides our permanent employees.
