    Good benefits. Generous leave 30-33 days depending on which grade. There are a variety of activities that staff are encouraged to undertake during their lunch times which creates a fantastic work life balance! Highly recommended. Good pension!

    Great salary and holiday allowance. Also the pension plan ,though it can be considered a weighty cut of your monthly pay, the OU are quite generous with they contribution.
