Hi, Lynne here. Thanks very much for taking the time to leave a review – and for your many years of service! I’m delighted that you’re still enjoying your role. As you’ve mentioned, we offer one of the best employee benefits packages in the industry – including generous retail discounts, 33 days’ holiday allowance, access to private healthcare and more. We know our employees work incredibly hard, so we want to make sure they’re properly rewarded for their efforts. I’m glad you’ve been able to take advantage of these – keep up the good work! You've noted that some things have changed over the years, such as opening hours, in order to meet the evolving needs of our customers. However, while we’re open for an hour later, we do try and alleviate this with our benefits package, a generous annual leave allowance and our flexible leave policy. If anyone does struggle with their work-life balance however, I’d encourage them to come to their manager or the People Team – we know how important this is to our employees! Thanks very much for your review and for your contributions over the years. Here's to many more years! Lynne McBurney, Group People Director

Hi, Lynne here Thank you so much for the wonderful review – it's always brilliant to see five stars! I’m thrilled to hear how much you are enjoying your role and that you feel so supported by both your team and management. We know that having great colleagues to work with, alongside supportive management, can make all the difference as I’m sure you’ll agree! It’s also wonderful to hear that you feel that there is good progression within your role – this is one of our core values at Arnold Clark, and we do our best to ensure that every employee can progress along with the company. It’s also why we provide free access to hundreds of training courses – both online and in person at our state-of-the-art GTG Training centres – as we want to ensure our employees have access to the tools and resources they need to drive their career forward. Thanks for the review and keep up the great work! Lynne McBurney, Group Head of People
