Work Life Integration

Work Life Integration is a self-management style where instead of being directed that things must be completed with specific hours - you are trusted to balance your needs and the needs of the position.  


You might be someone that enjoys teaching a Yoga class in the morning - at 9 am and why shouldnt you?  Instead of missing that aspect of your life to meet an arbitrary 'working day' develop a plan that allows you to work at the best time for you.


With all the opportunities that the Central West of New South Wales offers being able to be flexible allows you to enjoy the most of what the region has to offer to create a lifestyle that is driven by your choices.

Working full time is only supposed to occupy 42% of your waking hours but when you love your work and you get to choose how to do it - it means that instead of a daily grind you actually have a life.

​Great Location

With offices in great locations in the Central West of New South Wales and more planned to be open, this role opens the door to a different lifestyle.  Personally, I love it!  Instead of a commute - from my front doorstep to the office is a 7 minute drive with minimal traffic.  Regional centres offer all the benefits of a metro area without all the hassles.
