Remote Working Jobs in Ireland

Remote working is on the rise. Employees have seen the tremendous positives and employers are now also realising that contrary to previously thought, productivity does not fall when everyone is working remotely. Prior to 2020, most workers had limited remote working experience. Now millions of people across the globe have pivoted to home working inadvertently leading to a massive global experiment in remote working. The pandemic has also accelerated changes in a world that have become more and more digitally connected.

Bain & Co estimate that as many as 70% of managers are now working from home. Teams have become more agile, adaptable and better able to prioritise since Covid-19 hit.

The benefits of remote working jobs

For the remote worker, the benefits are obvious:

• No commuting time. Especially in Ireland when the high cost of housing has moved many of us further and further away from city centres.
• Having a flexible schedule. Managing your own time and productivity.
• Able to spend more time with family. For many working parents the pandemic has been an eye-opener in terms of spending more quality family time together (though clearly not the homeschooling, never the homeschooling!).

At WorkJuggle we have compiled some tips on how to ask to work remotely on a permanent basis are in this short video here.

We were also lucky enough to interview Harriet Minter, the author of “WHF: How to Build a Career you Love when you are not working in an Office.” This was an Instagram Live where we were able to fully explore with the author how you can forge a career utilising non-traditional working patterns such as remote work or working from home as she calls it.
