Civil Service Job Share Finder
Overview
Job sharing is when 2 colleagues share the work and responsibilities of one full-time job role. They each work for part of a week and will typically have a handover meeting at an agreed time midweek.
The Civil Service Job Share Finder website is an online job-share database that helps civil servants find and manage information so that they can make compatible job-share matches with other civil servants.
The website also has a Resource Library on its front page which is open to all to learn more about job sharing and flexible working too.
