Hi everyone,

Received an offer to join
UBS in London. HR mentioned they offer a 16% "ValueFlex" package on top of base salary. Apparently if you don't use it to buy optional benefits (i.e. insurance etc), you can get it as cash in your monthly payslip.

Anyone at UBS who can confirm? Having a lot of trouble to get in touch with them..

TC: £70k, 2YOE

Yes - but there are certain benefits that you must have.
One is pension contribution, I think the lowest you can go is 8%, the other is private health insurance, which will cost £60-80 per month.
So this should leave you with 5-6% that you can use for other benefits or take as salary.

Wow, I had no idea they offered that option. Thanks for shedding light on this.

That's super interesting - my firm is testing something that out but it hasn't gone through yet. I do like the idea though...
