-
Free food and coffee
We’ve got an on-site cafe in Sunderland serving breakfast and lunch, plus barista-made coffee every day. And trust us — our chefs are very popular.
-
Holidays
You’ll get 25 days, plus bank holidays. You’ll also have the option to buy extra days or carry over any you don’t use.
-
Quarterly bonus
Everyone at tombola can earn a quarterly bonus. It’s linked to how we’re doing as a business, so what you do really matters. For most of us, the bonus is up to 10% of our annual salary. Depending on your role and level, it can be higher.
-
Hybrid working
In our Sunderland office, we’re in three days a week. The other two are flexible. Work from home or come in — whatever works best for you. Some of our roles are fully remote or based in a different location. If that applies to you, your job advert will have the details.
-
Flexible working
Our core hours are 10am to 4pm. Outside of that, you can shape the rest of your day around what suits you. Some of our roles follow fixed shifts or different working patterns. If that applies to your role, your job advert will have the details.
-
Work from abroad
Fancy working somewhere new? With your manager's OK, our "Take 20" policy lets you work from another country for up to 20 working days a year.
-
Home setup contribution
If you’re permanently home based, you’ll get £250 to help set yourself up with what you need to do your job. If you’re office based and work from home for up to two days a week, we’ll sort the extra kit you need for that too.
-
Health and wellbeing
We offer private healthcare, so you can get the care and treatment you need, when you need it. There's also a free on-site gym with showers in Sunderland, Leeds and Dublin. If you work from home or in one of our other offices, we'll help towards your gym membership instead.
-
Pension scheme
We offer an enhanced pension scheme and, depending on where you’re based, we will contribute up to 8%. If you’d like a hand planning ahead, our pension advisors are there to help too.
-
Life assurance
We offer life assurance, so the people you love are looked after. It pays out up to four times your annual salary to the loved ones you choose.
-
Family friendly policies
We’ve got a range of enhanced parental leave policies across our different locations. If you’re growing your family or taking on a caring role, we’re here to support you. If you’d like to know more, talk to your Talent Acquisition Partner.
-
Charity and community
Fundraising for a charity? We’ll match up to £500 of what you raise, whether you’re doing it on your own or as part of a group. And with "Donate a day", you can use up to two working days a year to volunteer for a charity or community cause you care about.
-
Learning
We’re big on learning and development. That means in-house training, full access to Udemy, and support with courses and conferences too. If there’s something you’d like to do, just ask.
-
Social events
We love getting together, so every year we have a summer family fun day and a Christmas party. It’s a chance for teams to bring their loved ones along and enjoy food, entertainment and activities together.
-
tombola merch
There’s no dress code at tombola, but if you’re stuck on what to wear, our merch store can help. Every year, you’ll get a workwear allowance to spend on hoodies, t-shirts and even branded bobble hats.

"tombola is really family first, which helps when you have three kids - I've had three maternity leaves and have been welcomed back with open arms each time, I have the flexibility to do some school pick ups and the free coffees definitely help with the inevitable toddler night time wake ups!"

"I used Take 20 to work remotely from Mauritius for three weeks, then stayed on for a two week holiday. I kept up my usual routine while enjoying the island in the evenings and at weekends, and it let me stretch my time away without using up all my annual leave. I came back refreshed and really appreciated being trusted to work flexibly, a really unique benefit."
