Working arrangements very flexible, working remotely allowed whenever needed.
I work the standard number of hours for employees on the enterprise agreement at Essential Energy which is a 9-day fortnight. Work from home is a fairly standard arrangement across the business
Flexible, with most managers comfortable with work from home and alternative working arrangements.
The standard work arrangement is a 9-day fortnight, with an RDO every two weeks, which provides a great work–life balance. Flexible working arrangements, including working from home, are available. However, as a graduate, the expectation is generally to spend most of your time in the office. There is a lot of value in being around experienced staff, observing how different parts of the business operate, and building relationships through in-person interactions early in your career. As you gain experience, there is typically more flexibility in how and where you work.
