A survey recently carried out amongst 3,500 workers across Europe found that employees who work flexibly are more productive, healthier and fitter than their full-time colleagues.

Here are three flexible jobs which could make you happier and healthier (and see further down the email for even more)…

Interim Finance Manager at a not for profit organisation in Earlsfield, 28 - 37.5 hrs/wk – closes Wednesday 27 May
This trade-union-owned collective of non profits has a turnover of £9m. Its main source of income derives from the operation of bar facilities at major UK & European music festivals such as Glastonbury. This exciting employer wants an experienced finance professional to join the team for an initial four month contract.

Leadership Development Champion for a voluntary sector membership body, Bloomsbury, 21hrs/wk, flexible working pattern – closes Thursday 28 May
Do you have a passion for leadership? The professional body for Chief Executives in the Third Sector is seeking for an inspiring individual who can act as an ambassador for the organisation and for the role of leadership itself. As the role would involve speaking opportunities, article writing and attending networking events, outstanding communication skills and personal experience of leadership are needed.

Trust and Grant Fundraiser at a Charity in Central London, 15 hrs/wk, flexible on timings with some home working possible – closes Friday 5 June
This innovative organisation introduces the small charities that don’t have the resources to support their infrastructures, to people who are experts in their field and willing to volunteer their time for free. The charity now requires the skills of an experienced Grants Fundraiser to help it raise income for new projects. This employer is also looking for an Events Manager – this role closes soon (Monday 1 June) so hurry if you want to apply.
