Values

Everything Barclays does is shaped by its five values of Respect, Integrity, Service, Excellence and Stewardship.

Hybrid:

At Barclays, we offer a hybrid working experience that blends the positives of working alongside colleagues at our onsite locations, together with working from home. We have a structured approach where colleagues work at an onsite location on fixed, 'anchor', days of the week, for a minimum of two days a week or more, as set by the business area (or nearest equivalent if working part-time hours). Please discuss the working pattern requirements for the role you are applying for with the hiring manager. Please note that as we continue to embed our hybrid working environment, we remain in a test and learn phase, which means that working arrangements may be subject to change on reasonable notice to ensure we meet the needs of our business.

Your Benefits

As a contract employee of Randstad Sourceright, you'll receive a wide range of financial and personal benefits. There's enrolment in a pension plan (after 12 weeks on assignment) and holiday pay. You'll also get 24/7 access to an Employee Assistance Programme, designed to help you deal with any problems that could be affecting your home or work life. Plus, there's discounts at heaps of high street shops, restaurants and entertainment - from Asda to Zizzi Italian restaurants.
