Zenith provides salary sacrifice scheme to Grafton

Grafton Merchanting GB has appointed Zenith to provide a salary sacrifice car scheme to its eligible employees over a two or three-year period.

The builders’ merchants group worked with its existing employee benefits provider, Reward Gateway, to give access to the new scheme.

The scheme, which is eligible to employees based at over 400 branches across the UK, was launched through a variety of communication methods including a feature in the employee magazine, emails, posters, flyers, webinars, roadshows and payslip notifications.

There have been over 60 orders placed within the first few weeks of the scheme being available.

Cliff Rendell, head of HR operations, rewards & payroll at Grafton Merchanting, said: “We already have an excellent benefits platform and wanted to expand our rewards package further by offering our employees the opportunity to drive a brand new, fully serviced, maintained and insured car, and save money.

“Corporate Social Responsibility is high on our agenda so we are delighted to be able to offer colleagues cars with low CO2 emissions without compromising on choice. It has been very well received by our employees.

“We chose Zenith based on its experience, knowledge and expertise in salary sacrifice car schemes.

“It has a strong focus on service, backed by market-leading systems and was able to provide multiple options for complete risk mitigation.”
