If we let one person work flexibly, then everyone will want to!” is often the argument we hear when speaking to companies who are resistant to introducing flexible working arrangements.

And at 9-2-3, our response is: “That’s a good thing!”

2020 has been quite the year so far. Whilst as a country we seem to never be too far away from another political crisis, there have been some great developments that show where the rest of the year, and perhaps further into the future, is going to take us. So it’s a good time to take stock of some of the more positive things starting to emerge when it comes to work and the ultimate goal of modern day thriving family.

“Whenever I walk through the door at home I am out of office, then when I walk through the door at work I am 100% at work…This is easy as long as you are not addicted to your smartphone!”

“Having the freedom to work flexibly and being able to dictate your own hours creates a two-way relationship of trust. Personally, for me it creates a greater sense of company loyalty as it demonstrates a high level of trust from your employer, helping make myself as a recent graduate feel valued.”

Winning awards for doing just that, of course!
It’s fair to say that the 9-2-3 team are dedicated to the flexible working cause, and we take an awful lot of pride in doing flexible recruitment brilliantly. This year we’re honoured to have achieved both local and national recognition for our work.

I’ve been saying for a few years now that we’re in the midst of a workplace revolution – and these last twelve months I think proves that it’s well underway!
