And after you're gone.                                                                  Founded by Sam after his mum died suddenly, we’re a group of people who work in death because we’ve been affected by it. We know the difference a good plan makes, and what it’s like when there isn’t one.                                          Death can come between us, leaving mess, legal fees, frustration. But it can also make us stronger. We see a world where people talk openly about death, and work out the real meaning of legacy, one that connects to them. We’re here to make that world happen.Benefits Octopus share incentive scheme27 days holiday + extra day off for your BirthdayVitality Health & Life InsurancePension schemeEnhanced parental leaveFree Will & LPAs + discounts on other Octopus servicesCycle to Work Scheme and EV Salary Sacrifice SchemeOctopus Giving: matched charitable fundraising up to £500Octopus Springboard: support to build your own ideas We know that to be truly innovative, we need to have a diverse team around us.
