Find work that fits around your life

Everyone’s needs are different, and asking for flexibility can be hard. Flex codes are a free way to say what you need from work: when you work, how many hours, where, and how much notice you need of your schedule. Answer four questions to get your personal flex code. You never have to explain why. You can then compare your code with any role to see straight away whether it could work for you, and share it with employers, recruiters and advisers. It’s free, takes about 5 minutes and needs no account. flexcodes.co.uk/individuals

Reach the applicants your adverts are missing

Most roles offer more flexibility than their adverts say. Applicants who need flexibility often scroll past adverts that don’t spell it out. Flex codes are a free, simple way to show what a role can offer: when work happens, how many hours, where, and how much notice of the pattern. Answer four questions, or start from an existing advert or job description, to create a role flex code for your adverts. A large UK trial found adverts offering flexible working attracted around 30% more applicants. Free for employers and recruiters, about 5 minutes per role, no account needed. flexcodes.co.uk/employers
