About LPPI (-%About LPPI)

One of the key priorities at LPPI is ensuring that our people work every day in an empowered, supportive, diverse and inclusive culture. Practically, this means recognising and valuing the uniqueness of every individual in terms of background, experience, beliefs and circumstances. This starts with the recruitment process, where we partner with agencies who share our common goal and advertise on a variety of job boards to access the broadest spectrum of candidates. And once successful applicants are on board, we trust our people to work in the way that works best for them which typically involves a mix of office and home working plus an engagement model to ensure frequent two-way feedback.

We are very proud of our culture at LPPI and the benefits it brings to both our people and the business. But don’t just take our word for it! Recently, we invited our entire workforce to describe in three words what is great about us and they said - our people, flexibility and collaboration.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a forward thinking People and Culture team, that is driving a number of key People products forward. We offer a competitive package, which includes a Bonus, Pension, Private Medical Insurance, 25 days annual leave plus 2 days Concessionary Leave and a £300 learning budget to spend as you like. We will also support candidates in studying the CIPD qualification.
