Rewards & Benefits

The SSTL Culture

SSTL's genuinely open environment is informal yet hard working, characterised by an informal dress policy, busy in-house café and a complete open door policy. A sense of team spirit and a willingness to achieve success as part of a team is what we look for in potential recruits and why we have been awarded a Best Companies To Work For accreditation.

Communication is key to our work and our café plays host to a weekly ‘family’ meeting for all staff hosted by our Chief Executive so that staff can hear the latest news on all projects – as well as social and sporting activities. Staff briefing meetings are also held bi-monthly where Divisional Directors provide a snapshot of the business.

Career Development
Developing our talent is vital to SSTL’s continued business growth and success. New starters are assigned a ‘buddy’ within their team to help in those vital first few weeks with us. We also ensure that if needed, a mentor is assigned to help accelerate your knowledge and learning.

We have an annual appraisal process where each individual’s learning and development needs are taken into consideration and prioritised as part of our annual training and development plan. We also support conference attendance where appropriate and can help support further education and study where relevant to a particular role.
