**Staff Benefits Galore**
- This is where we stand out from the crowd Windermere offers staff a wide range of unique benefits beyond the salary

- Opportunities for professional development
- Salary packaging up to $15,800 per year (+ additional $2,650 meals and entertainment)
- Staff discount program for everyday items
