Market-leading benefits
Our market-leading benefits and development opportunities have been carefully curated over many years, adapting and improving as the needs of our employees have changed. We encourage feedback on all elements of our working environment, ensuring our staff feel cared for, supported in their progression, and rewarded for their achievements.
We know that looking after our workforce means they’re happier, more engaged, and more invested in a long-term career with La Fosse – our staff retention rate far exceeds the industry average as a result.
Salary & commission
At La Fosse, we respect our workforce and see them as our most valuable asset. Our commission structure is one of the best in the industry, offering 30%+ uncapped commission to billing consultants, as well as a wealth of opportunity for cross-selling and support.
We also reward specific achievements with a range of bonuses and awards, recognising hard work and service excellence at all levels of the business. It’s important to us that all of our employees benefit from our success as the organisation grows.
Growth & development
Continuous investment in your career
Everyone at La Fosse has a development roadmap with clear and achievable KPIs. We love to see the growth of our people, promoting from within where possible and offering training, coaching, and mentoring to ensure they can continue to develop.
We also recognise that not everyone wants to progress in the same way, so roadmaps are created in partnership with our employees to really understand their personal and professional goals and align their career pathways to help them succeed.
Our total talent solution means we offer a wide variety of career paths across multiple geographies – many of our employees have moved between teams and locations.
