We offer you 3 working days off a year fully paid, to volunteer for a charity or local community initiative that you feel passionate about.

Health & Social

to your destination

We are passionate about the health and wellbeing of our team, and this is at the heart of our culture, ensuring we have a healthy and happy workplace and a good work/life balance. We might have an occasional sprint when we’re all-hands-on-deck, but we don’t have a long-hours culture and you’ll be supported to ensure you get the right split between professional and personal.

Our 24/7 employee assistance programme gives you access to counselling services, legal and financial advice, and an online portal and mobile app where you can configure your own health hub and access lots of perks and discounts.

The cost of membership of our private healthcare scheme is met by us, and you will have the option to upgrade your membership to include immediate family.

We are committed to supporting both your physical and mental health, and we have qualified mental health first aiders to support our team’s mental wellbeing. We’ll also give you an hour off each week to do something healthy, be that a cycle ride, an hour in the gym, some yoga, a walk in the fresh air or a meditation or mindfulness session – if it helps you to feel good, go for it!

Apprenticeship partnership with Gloucestershire College

Bridging the ever-growing cyber skills gap across the industry is a challenge for us all. Apprenticeships are just one of the many ways of addressing this pressing issue. At Origin8tive we are proud to offer apprenticeships across the software testing and cyber security technician standards, through our educational partner Gloucestershire College.

Beginning in September 2023, Origin8tive will welcome apprentices on the Level 4 Software Tester Apprenticeship standard, and the Level 3 Cyber Security Technician standard. These standards have been developed in collaboration with Industry to reflect the required level of skill from the next generation of cyber security and testing professionals. Funded through the apprenticeship levy, apprentices benefit from vital on the job training, gaining real world experience and profit from developing their soft skills working alongside our talented and personable team, all whilst earning a competitive salary without the burden of tuition fees. As a business we will mutually benefit, upskilling local talent, creating new relationships with academia and we’ll bolster our talent pool and resource pipeline.

Our comprehensive programme features opportunities to work with industry leading technologies and tools, alongside our established teams on real world, mission critical customer projects. Throughout their studies, our apprentices will learn the fundamentals to their chosen career pathway and be exposed to other working practices within Origin8tive, equipping them with knowledge of different career routes inside the industry.
