Our benefits

For a more detailed insight into our benefits please see our benefits overview.

Our culture

While working for another framework provider I began hearing positive feedback regarding JNB from both its employees and the client. The benefits packages are really good and there is a companywide commitment to learning and professional development by investing in its people and promoting from within which I found attractive as there was scope to develop and promote within the company.

Our reputation for the highest quality is built by our people and so we strive to create and maintain a workplace where they can feel they truly belong. To do this well, we believe our people should be able to define how we do it. We are proud of where we are but recognise there is, of course, more to do. The very nature of being an inclusive workplace means being committed to continually evolving how we think and adapting what we need to do. As such our goals and work in the inclusion and belonging space will be ever-evolving.

Our values

We believe that because we care about what we do, we do things better.

Caring brings social value. It means our people make sustainable positive differences to our clients, their customers, our communities and the environment by delivering projects that we are all proud of.


Because we care about our clients and their customers…

…clients award us repeat-business. They sign up to long-term frameworks with us and call on our services when deadlines are tight, when they need an emergency response, and when the work needs a team of people willing to go that extra mile. And whilst working together, we always care for the environment.


Because we care about our people and keeping them safe…

…there is nothing more important than our people going home fit and well at the end of the day. We want our people to thrive and invest heavily in their development. We want them to be part of their communities, supporting volunteering, charitable endeavours, and social events.


Because we care about the bottom line…

…we’ve put the tools in place to help ensure we deliver efficiently for our clients. Our Quality, Cost & Efficiency Strategy focuses on innovation, collective effort and making those small savings that all add up. This means our clients' investments deliver as much for society as possible.

Our health and safety commitment

To achieve ZERO injuries and PREVENT occupational ill-health.

There is nothing we care more about than making sure we all go home safe and well at the end of the working day. Our commitment to health and safety is to achieve ZERO injuries and prevent occupational ill health.

The key to achieving this is making sure that everyone takes ownership for their team’s, their colleagues’ and their own health and safety – and take positive action to keep each other safe.

If we cannot do it safely, we will not do it at all.
