#FlexibilyConnected

Our award winning #FlexiblyConnected programme encourages our office-based colleagues to work flexibly. If you need help balancing your work and home life talk to us about what flexibility is available at the application or interview stage. In our hybrid roles your work will be split between your home and at least one day per week, on average, in one of our offices. This may vary from time to time, so you will need to work in a flexible way to unlock your best work for our cause.
