6 recorded benefits. Record edited: Mon Sep 21 2026 14:47:40 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time).
Recorded work model: Primarily office-based in Gateshead with role-dependent hybrid, remote-channel and outreach work. The current official vacancies page says the organisation takes part in a four-day working week; hours, day-off pattern and eligibility vary by role..
Hybrid Work
Hybrid working, and its attached current role profile describes the role as primarily office-based with scope for hybrid working where appropriate. The current Money Advice/Debt Caseworker detail and attached September 2026 profile allow advice through phone, email and webchat but require office or outreach delivery on occasion. This is role- and service-dependent in Gateshead and the wider region, not a blanket fully remote policy

Practising Certificate Fee
Citizens Advice Gateshead pays the annual practising-certificate renewal fee for solicitors employed by the organisation. This is a professional-fee benefit limited to the employed Solicitor role/class, not a company-wide benefit

Four-Day Workweek
The organisation takes part in the four-day working week, that teams maintain productivity measures and enjoy extra flexibility, and that a four-day-week toolkit supports colleagues adapting to the pattern. Hours can be negotiable up to 37 per week, so no 32-hour or full-pay formula is asserted

Paid Holidays (22 days + bank holidays)
22 days plus bank holidays. 22 days rising to 24 after two years plus bank holidays, while the attached current Solicitor role profile says 22 days rising to 25 after two years plus bank holidays. The discrepancy is preserved; entitlement is role/document-specific and the public sources do not establish one company-wide schedule
