Your total remuneration includes your base salary as well as superannuation, which is set at 10% of your base. You’ll be paid monthly by EFT directly to a nominated account. Super is paid to your nominated fund, and you can elect to contribute more on top of the company contribution of 10%. Remuneration is reviewed annually every January as part of our performance management process.

Depending on your role, you may also be eligible to participate in our generous incentive plan. This provides a bonus based on your performance, as well as that of your team and the business overall. The plan is intended to ensure you could benefit directly from the strong performance of the business.

For many, the ultimate reward comes via our Living our Values Awards.
