Our Business
Here at Workdry we can offer real career opportunities and the ability to develop in your role. This isn't just something we say; many of our Directors have been promoted internally, and career development is something we truly value.
We also understand balancing work and life commitments is important; that's why we've designed our benefits package to support you in all areas of life. As standard, we have a 3 days in (the office) 2 days out (working from home) approach to give you a better balance.
Amongst our other benefits, we also offer a great discount platform which gives you money off or cashback for supermarkets, high street shops, days out, holidays, and many more, giving you a little extra to spend on yourself. Likewise, our bonus is based on company performance, and we pay this quarterly because we don't want to wait 12 months to reward you for the work you're doing right now.
