At DY, we value our people and are committed to creating a supportive, rewarding workplace. From career development to health and wellbeing, we offer a competitive package of benefits designed to help our team thrive. Here’s a snapshot of what you can expect when you join us.
Salary
We offer competitive salaries based on role, experience, and qualifications, aligned with industry benchmarks. Salaries are reviewed annually to recognise performance and career progression.
Holidays
All employees start with 30 days of annual leave, including Bank Holidays. Your entitlement increases by 1 day every 2 years of service, up to a maximum of 34 days per year.
Pensions
All employees are automatically enrolled in our pension scheme after three months. The company contributes 4% (via salary sacrifice unless otherwise requested), and employees contribute 5%.
Health Cash Plan
Employees have access to the Westfield Mosaic Health Cash Plan, which lets them claim back costs for a wide range of medical care, including optical and dental, therapy treatments, chiropody, homeopathy, maternity, paternity, adoption support, day surgery, and more.
Hybrid & Flexible Working
We support flexible and homeworking arrangements where appropriate, helping our employees achieve a healthy work-life balance.
Bonus Schemes
We encourage employees to promote the company to friends, family, associates, or business contacts. We also have a non-contractual, discretionary bonus scheme, which is linked to the company achieving its annual performance targets.

Once qualified, DY covers all annual affiliation fees for relevant professional bodies, including AAT, ATT, ACA, ACCA, CTA, and other applicable qualifications.

All employees are eligible from day one. In the event of an employee’s death during employment, the scheme pays two times their annual salary.
