Hybrid work

Be flexible. Be happy.

We fully embrace hybrid working and recognise the many advantages it can bring

We provide our people with a high degree of flexibility to work between the office and their home, based on the nature of the activity that’s being performed and the wider requirements of the team in which they work.

Our home is a place where we can do focused work with minimal interruptions, and the office acts as a hub for collaborating, learning from others and socialising, whether meeting a client, training or meeting up with our colleagues.

At the heart of our approach to hybrid working is an understanding that our work should be an activity that we do, not a place that we go.

Our hybrid working charter

Accommodate the client
We ensure we always accommodate our clients’ meeting needs, whether virtual or in-person, at our premises or theirs.

Think need
We put our clients’ and team’s needs first, and decide where best to perform the activity or task.

Core working hours
We offer the flexibility to structure your working week around our core working hours of 10am to 3pm, when everyone is usually available.

Time in office
We work in our offices between 20% and 80% of our working time across a month, though you can work in the office all the time if you choose.

High performance
We strive to deliver the highest standards of performance for our clients and colleagues, wherever we work.

Training and mentoring
We are available in person to share knowledge and experience with our colleagues.

Maintain and enhance our culture
We meet each other regularly in our offices, checking in on team members and supporting their health and wellbeing.

Transparency
We are open about our location and availability.

Clear expectations
Managers set clear hybrid working expectations and focus on output not presenteeism.

Dress appropriately
We dress appropriately when working in an office or representing the firm at client premises or events.

Our people say

“The flexibility is great! I really enjoy spending time with the team in the office but equally really appreciate the peace and quiet at home to be able to get my head down and focus on more technical work.” Dawn, Director
“It provides the best of both worlds, the ability to catch up face to face with colleagues on days in the office and the ability to save time and put this towards client work by not commuting on other days.” James, Financial Planner
“I’ve swapped unproductive commuting time for exercise, and I’m spending more time with family. I also get more work done in busy periods without feeling like I have actually worked longer hours, as I can finish work and already be home.” Sophie, Corporate Finance Associate
“If I feel like I need a productive day getting my head down at home, I can do so. I can also book a desk in work when I want to work with the team. Being able to choose where I work from allows me to plan work around my life as opposed to life around my work.” Archie, Accountant
“One or two days a week without the commute really helps. I can do a slightly longer morning dog walk, or just get through the to-do list. That bit less driving reduces tiredness and impact on the environment too.” Sharon, Partner
