Work from anywhere

After your first 6 months, most people can work virtually from (almost) anywhere in the world for up to 90 days a year: Yep, just about anywhere on the planet. This gives you the flexibility to visit your family, or travel and experience living the way many of our customers do. And of course, use our product while you’re at it. 🙂

Mission Days

Mission Days is an opportunity that happens twice a year for many of our Wisers to connect around the globe, come together and foster relationships. From the diverse and inclusive atmosphere to the thoughtfully designed collaboration, you’ll experience the power of networking, cross-team collaboration, and gaining a global perspective that propels Wise’s mission forward.

Flexible working

We know that teams and individuals all have different needs depending on what they need to deliver, as well as their personal circumstances. That’s why we have company wide principles around flexible working and our teams set their own guidelines too.

We expect new joiners to be in the office most days to build connections and learn from colleagues for their first six months. 

Creative workplaces

We design our offices to be enjoyable spaces, where everyone can do their best work. Many are dog-friendly, with massage chairs, games areas and more. We encourage cross-team relationship building through weekly or bi-weekly team lunches, snacks and drinks. Plus regular social events and activities that Wisers can get involved in, such as running club, yoga, gaming or pottery.

Social get togethers

As well as regular team lunches and get togethers in the office, we also have a 'fun budget' of £30 (or local currency equivalent) per Wiser per month to connect with your teams, in person or virtually.  

Volunteering day

As a mission-driven and socially responsible organisation, Wise encourages you to support your community. We offer a day each year for you to volunteer with an organisation of your choice.

Professional development fund

There’s no shortage of growth opportunities at Wise and it’s up to you to choose how you want to develop your skills to get there. That’s why you'll have a dedicated yearly allowance to boost your professional development.

Financial Education Programme

You can access free one-to-one financial consultations, online resources and regular masterclass sessions to understand your personal finances and find answers to common issues.

Holiday

25 days paid holiday + UK paid bank holidays per calendar year. This is prorated for those who work part-time and/or started midway through the year.

Me Days

You get 3 ‘me days’ per year to help you manage your life. This can be used for whatever you like — perhaps to take the dog to the vet, to pamper yourself, or take your Mum on a day out. It’s completely up to you. Me days are prorated in your first year, based on your start date.

Paid sabbatical

It’s a marathon, not a sprint. We value the extra mile our employees go for customers.
That's why, after 4 years at Wise, you can take a sabbatical; 6 weeks’ paid time off plus £1,000 in financial support.

Maternity Leave

Maternity leave: 26 weeks fully paid leave (inclusive of any statutory pay), after 6 months’ service at Wise, if eligible. Effective from 1 January 2027

Private Medical Insurance

We provide a private medical coverage plan, where the only cost for you is any excess and the associated tax. You’re also able to cover your partner or family for an additional fee.

Critical Illness Insurance

Protect yourself in case of serious injury or illness through this self-funded, salary sacrifice benefit offered at preferential rates.

Dental Insurance

Protect your teeth with discounted, self-funded insurance for you and your family.

Stock

At Wise, we’re all invested in our mission. And through our individual roles, we each take ownership of achieving it. That’s why, alongside your salary, we grant Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) to all Wisers, so we can all share in our success.

Pension

Save towards your retirement with our contributory pension plan. When you contribute 3% upwards, Wise will contribute 5% on top.
