More than 770,000 high earners now work part-time, according to a report that shows how employers are becoming more open to using job shares in senior roles. Co-founder Karen Mattison said: “The dramatic increase in job shares offers us a glimpse into how jobs will be designed in the future. The list’s nine job shares compare with just two when it was last published in 2015. Mattison said that while public sector employers dominated the senior job shares list for now, she hoped more private sector firms would follow their lead. Pearce says the job share was a way for them to stay with the charity in roles they both care deeply about.
