Careers at Axair

Careers at Axair FansAs a second-generation family run business, we pride ourselves on ensuring that the same positive culture and enthusiasm that started Axair back in 1983, is reinforced and built upon today. To do this we’re always on the lookout for talented people that have the right attributes, skills and enthusiasm for providing technical and customer centric solutions to the industrial market. We know it’s a tough world out there, so we’ve tried our best to make things easier for you.

8 ways we support you, for supporting us…

 

 

1Employee Health & Wellbeing

Good employee health makes good sense, that’s why we offer complimentary employee health cash plans that enable employees to claim money back for dental, optical, holistic and physio costs, alongside access to mental health support, remote GP appointments, counsellors and much more. Learn more about our employee cash plan here. That yearly massage you have on a Saturday just to treat yourself, that’s covered too. Winner! Oh and just to throw this in there, and to us it’s obvious, but we’re not going to take time off you for dentist or obvious medical appointments either, because your annual leave should be used for the fun things in life, not getting your teeth checked right?.

2Christmas Eve Gratuity Day

Christmas Eve is the time when our employees should be spending valuable time with the people that matter the most to them, their families and friends. That’s why it’s written in our policies that if Christmas Eve falls on a working weekday, we’ll give employees the day off, fully paid for by the company. 25 days holiday plus bank holidays. After 3 years’ continued service employees have additional options to extend annual leave to use as you wish.

 

3Work Socials

All work and no play make jack a dull boy as the saying goes, so we encourage our team to take some much-needed downtime away from the stresses of work. That’s why we organise at least 4 company funded social events during work hours throughout the year. Led by suggestions from our employees the possibilities are endless, ranging from events such as bowling, exclusive bar usage, driving range, paint balling, clay pigeon shooting, escape rooms and much more. The team also plan a few more unofficial social events in the evenings which everyone is free to attend. Additionally we’ve been known to throw in the odd discretionary lunch if our team have gone above and beyond. Maybe the end of your first week could be one of those days? Apply and let’s see where it goes.

 

Careers at Axair - Socials

 

4Free Tea and Coffee

It sounds bad to us to be saying this, but we heard that some companies charge you for drinks, even limit you to one coffee or tea a day. Well not us. With a few coffee aficionados in the house, we have bean to cup machines for your morning espresso or your afternoon latte in the upstairs and downstairs kitchens. If tea is your thing, our selection of speciality teas is available, we won’t list out the variations of green tea or immune support tea that the current employees request each week. If you’re non-dairy we’ll also accommodate for it, with soy, almond and oat milks making regular appearances in the kitchen fridge, you’d be surprised to know that we also have regular cow’s milk, just for the millennials out there. Wondering about cooking? Our employees benefit from an all access ninja air fryer in the downstairs kitchen and free of charge fruit to keep you in tip top condition. One important thing we don’t provide however, and we must stress this…. if it’s your birthday you must bring cake*. So we can all celebrate you getting older of course.

 

5Perks on Top Brands

We all need a little reward from time to time. That’s why we’ve teamed up with Breeze by Health Shield to offer our employees PERKS offers on hundreds of deals and discounts from the brands you know and love, helping your salary stretch a little further. Examples include savings on cinema tickets, technology, or money off gift vouchers.

 

6Training and Development

Meaningful change can’t happen without you, and if you want more, we want more for you. Our people are encouraged to utilise and enhance their strengths, therefore if an employee suggests additional training and development that will enhance their skills, we’ll happily sign off.

 

7 Uniform & Equipment

Join our team of fan integrations experts and feel like part of the community with our corporate uniform. Each employee is supplied with polos, a gilet, and a jacket. Pair it up with trousers or a skirt, and footwear of your choice. We’re easy going but check our uniform policy to see if you favourite shoes are allowed in the office. What about Fridays? Well Fridays are our dress down days, so express yourself and feel comfortable however you feel best. For those roles that require toe protector boots or warmer clothing for open areas, we’ve got that covered too. Each employee is provided with a company laptop and headphones as standard. We operate telecommunications via teams, so you’ll never need to use your own phone, even if working remotely. Mobile phones are provided depending on the role where deemed necessary.

 

8Free Car Parking

Our offices have ample space for our employees to park safely and free of charge.

 

 

Something Missing?

If there’s something missing that’s preventing you from pressing that apply button don’t hold back. Let us know what’s the deal breaker, and we’ll investigate it to see if it’s something we can sweeten our benefits portfolio with. Who knows, you may have made your first contribution to making a change for the better.

 

Your Progression

If you’re looking for genuine progression opportunities, then you’ve come to the right place. For the right person, a growing and expanding family-owned business is a great lily pad to leap up the corporate ladder. If you’ve got the drive, ambition, and tenacity to show us how you can make a real difference then we want to hear from you.

The below is just one example of the progression route our current Technical Sales Director has taken but routes vary depending on the business requirements.

Proof that if you’re in it for the long term, so are we…
