MfE supports flexible working

Our flexible working arrangements enable you to personalise your work style

“Flexible working is fantastic and allows me to do my best work” 

Flexible working is about giving our people real choices so they can manage their work/life balance and general wellbeing while supporting MfE to achieve its organisational strategies and goals.

As a flexible-by-default organisation all roles are suitable for some form of flexibility. This is unless there is a good business reason for a role not to be flexible. Our approach will always be ‘why not?'

Greater flexibility makes it easier for people at all levels of the organisation to:

• balance their work and other commitments
• manage their career as they move through the different phases of their life. 

Flexible-by-default enables us to attract and retain a diverse group of people and operate in an inclusive and sustainable way.

"My manager is great at implementing MfE’s flexible by default policy"

Our people have a degree of flexibility on where, how and when work is completed.  Not all of our roles need to be located in Wellington for example.  We have a number of staff located across Aotearoa. 

If you are looking at roles within MfE think about how you like to work

Flexible working is the new normal around here. Having it modelled by our senior leaders reinforces this.

“We have a great flexible working policy and my team implements it really well”.

If you join us, you can talk to your manager about what choices are available to you to enable you to work at your best.
