You can also request flexibility during core hours.
Part time and job share
Most of our job opportunities offer part time working and job share partnerships.
If you job share or are thinking about it, a dedicated Job Share Network has been set up for civil servants to share experiences, get tips and advice from colleagues, read interesting articles to help you develop, arrange socials, and seek out a job share partner.
If you’ve found someone to job share with and you want to apply together for a post, you’ll both need to complete an application form. Make it clear you’re applying on a job-sharing basis. You’ll be interviewed separately.
Compressed hours
We offer the opportunity to work compressed hours. This means that, for example, you could work 9 out of 10 days in agreement with your Line Manager as long as you still work your same amount of hours in a fortnight.
