Working hours
Working hours are typically from 9am to 6pm, Monday to Friday. However, there is often the expectation to start the day early or stay late in order to meet deadlines. Weekend work is rare.
Although hours may be irregular, paid overtime is rare, but some agencies will offer time in lieu. Career breaks or part-time work are not typical in the industry but opportunities are increasing. Job-sharing and part-time work are sometimes possible and some of the larger agencies offer paid sabbaticals after a qualifying period of service.
