Buying & Selling Annual Leave
Roles and practices where you can trade annual leave with salary. How the schemes work, and what to check.
Knowledge
Buying and selling leave, in plain terms.
Buying and selling annual leave turns holiday into a flexible benefit: sacrifice a little salary for extra days, or sell days back for pay, within annual limits set by the practice.
Buying extra leave usually costs less than people expect once spread across the year’s payslips, and for many designers an extra week of rest beats the money. Check the scheme’s limits and whether it runs in both directions.
This hub gathers the roles and practices advertising leave trading as part of their offer.

Buying a week of extra leave often costs less than people assume, spread across the year.
- Check both directions
Ask the annual limits and whether both directions are allowed; some schemes only sell.
