The Annual Leave Purchase Scheme is now open for enrolment until Monday 25 September 2023 for eligible university staff.

The Annual Leave Purchase Scheme is a salary sacrifice scheme whereby staff can exchange salary in return for additional annual leave, up to a maximum of 1 week, pro-rated for part-time staff.

The scheme is open to all employees on permanent or fixed-term contracts except for those on fractional term time only contracts.

Full scheme details including eligibility can be found within the scheme guide and FAQS on the Employee Hub.

Any annual leave purchased through the scheme needs to be booked in line with normal holiday booking processes.  If you are interested in applying for additional leave please discuss any plans with your manager prior to enrolling.
