As part of its continuing commitment to reward its team of almost 250 employees and reinforce it as a great place in which to work, Berry Recruitment will now provide its employees with free and exclusive access to over a hundred practical and recreational benefits and perks. New benefits now available to the team at Berry via Perkbox include up to 6% off at 20,000 retail stores and 50 nationwide brands, two for one or 50% off in more than 6,500 restaurants with a free tastecard, free mobile phone insurance and breakdown cover, money off in pubs, bars and coffee shops, heavily discounted theatre tickets and attraction day passes, corporate rates in top gym chains, half price MOTs, amongst thousands of other benefits. Fresh perks will be added to the platform regularly and all employees will be able to simply redeem these via their own dedicated account using Perkbox's online platform and smartphone app.

As well as easy online and on-the-go redemption using the latest technology, Berry Recruitment staff will also have access to an employee engagement platform that is designed to enhance financial, emotional and physical wellbeing. This includes online classes in yoga, healthy cooking and meditation, as well as financial help and advice. The team will be automatically enrolled in an online internal Rewards and Recognition platform - a gamified system carefully constructed to reward employees and drive peer-to-peer recognition. They will also be gifted with an occasional surprise "Perkbox" filled with treats and free goodies for the whole team to enjoy.

Chris Chown, Group Managing Director at Berry, commented: "We're thrilled to be partnering up with Perkbox. Being able to offer our employees fabulous perks fits in perfectly with our ongoing commitment to rewarding our valued teams and attracting top talent to our business. In our employee satisfaction survey, our staff asked for improved benefits.  We listened and have partnered with Perkbox as part of our aim to provide the most diverse range of benefits possible."

Our new partnership with Berry Recruitment will enable them to provide their hardworking staff with wide ranging, desirable perks and benefits, as well as a fun and easy-to-manage Rewards and Recognition system that acknowledges and celebrates a job well done."
