Flexible retirement
[Professor Sarah Dodd]Our agile/hybrid working approach means we can work flexibly and effectively while ensuring we continue providing the services our students and partners expect and deserve.
There are a number of options which offer flexibility to colleagues to help balance work and home life – one of these is flexible retirement.
Professor Sarah Dodd, Hunter Centre for Entrepreneurship, tells us how flexible retirement has improved her work/life balance and increased her teaching and research productivity and effectiveness.
