Spill's employee assistance programme (EAP) for finance and financial services
In financial services the numbers have to be right, the hours are long, and admitting you're struggling can still feel like a career risk. 74% of chartered accountants experienced burnout last year. Spill gives banks, insurers, fintechs and finance teams truly confidential support, with no referral step and no one at work ever knowing who used it.
Same day counselling sessions
Rolling 30 day contract
Unlimited access from £75 per month

Proudly supporting finance teams across the UK





High stakes, long hours, and a culture of not saying so
In financial services the stakes are consistently high. Livelihoods, businesses and futures ride on individual decisions. Long hours, tight deadlines, heavy regulatory pressure and a culture where stress is often taboo combine to produce a higher proportion of mental ill-health than most sectors.
Widespread burnout
74% of chartered accountants reported some form of burnout in the past year. (caba / ICAEW, 2024)
Depression diagnosed
32% of chartered accountants have been diagnosed with or self-identified depression. (caba, 2024)
Rethinking careers
41% say burnout has made them consider changing careers or leaving the profession. (caba, 2024)
Clear heads make better calls
Turnover in finance runs at around 27% a year and burnout is a leading driver. Spill gives your people somewhere to take the pressure before it shows up in performance, absence or resignation letters.
Perform under pressure, sustainably
Help your people manage deadline pressure and perfectionism without burning out.
Protect focus and judgement
Clear heads make better decisions for clients, especially in high-stakes weeks.
Reduce quiet absence
Presenteeism and sick days both fall when people have somewhere to take the pressure.
All-in-one EAP for your team
Unlimited counselling sessions
A completely confidential space to take the pressure, with a fully qualified therapist and no referral step anyone at work can see. Same-day availability from early morning to late evening, seven days a week.


Self-guided wellbeing resources
A library of practical, evidence-based resources written by licensed therapists who understand the unique pressures finance workers face.

FAQs
The best EAP for finance is one people will actually use in a culture where stress is often hidden: fully confidential, no referral through HR, and access to a specialist rather than a generalist call handler. Spill is the UK's highest rated EAP on Trustpilot, with unlimited, same-day counselling from £75 a month on a rolling 30 day contract. Finance companies like Funding Circle, Nutmeg and Freetrade use Spill to support their teams. Traditional helpline EAPs cost less per head, but they cap sessions at 6 to 8 a year, which is why usage tends to sit at 3 to 5%.
Spill starts at £75 per month for your whole team, on a rolling 30 day contract you can cancel with 30 days' notice. For a 50-person firm that works out at £1.50 per employee per month, including unlimited counselling sessions. Traditional helpline EAPs often look cheaper per head but cap or exclude actual therapy, so the real cost per session used is usually far higher. To get a tailored quote, book a free 30 minute demo.
