Benefits &
Perks

Level Up Program

Everyone has up to $5,000 per year to spend on professional development. Whether it's a short course, a book relating to your career or something else, we're keen to invest in the continuous development of our team.

Wellness Program

We want our team to feel great. That’s why we’ve designed a wellness program which features bi-monthly activities. This includes yoga, meditation, breathwork techniques, ergonomics… and everyone’s favourite, office massages.

Charity Donation & Volunteering

We donate 1% of profit to charity each year. The charity is decided by staff. In the past we’ve selected The Cancer Council, The Smith Family, Good Shepherd and the Royal Children’s Hospital Foundation. This year we’ve selected Dementia Australia. We also look for opportunities to support charities throughout the year (e.g. volunteering).

Working from Home

We understand that everyone is unique. Some people love working from home. Others hate it. Whichever camp you fall into, we will tailor an appropriate arrangement to help you to thrive.

Breakfast, Fruit & Snacks

We provide an impressive selection of breakfast items, fruit and snacks. Whether you're the kind of person who likes to start their day with granola, or prefers to snack in the afternoon; we've got you covered.

Annual Team Retreat

We have an annual retreat for our whole team (not just Directors). In the past we have gone to South Korea, Japan and Thailand. All accommodation, flights, team activities, transport, breakfasts, team lunches and dinners are paid for by VL.

VL Days

We provide an extra week of annual leave to eligible staff each year. This is designed to ensure that our team are taking enough time off. These days can be spent doing whatever makes the biggest positive impact for you; whether that is going on holiday, volunteering or learning a new hobby.

Paid Parental Leave

We offer up to 14 weeks fully paid parental leave. We also pride ourselves on providing flexibility to parents returning to work after parental leave. We understand that juggling family life and work can be tough. So, we try to make the transition back to work as easy as possible.

Much More

Friday Cocktails, regular social activities, standing desks, barista quality coffee, Associate & Senior Associate catch ups, carefully tailored development plans ... We've run out of space, but you get the idea.
