Hi! Thank you for your question. In short, yes this is permitted subject to you meeting the eligibility criteria. The majority of our vacancies will require the successful candidate to be based somewhere in the UK, and we will verify your Right to Work in the UK during your vetting and onboarding stage. Upon joining us, permanent colleagues who are UK tax residents can request to work outside of the UK for up to 21 consecutive days per year from a prescribed list of countries. The list of countries is subject to change at any time but as of November 2024 this includes Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Poland, Portugal and Spain. You can use this in combination with holidays or trips to visit family, it's not a replacement for annual leave. Colleagues are eligible to request this from their first day with us, however it's worth noting that for the most senior roles in the organisation (typically Directors and Executives), there can be different rules. More information about this is available internally and will be explained to you should you make a request. Please note this policy is subject to change at any time, so if this is important to you, please check in with your Talent Acquisition Partner ahead of joining.
