Job sharing

A smiling adult LeaderGirlguiding UK supports flexible guiding and encourages job sharing between adults in guiding in all roles.

Any individual may choose to undertake a role as a job-share with one or more other adults. This should be discussed with the appropriate Commissioner. The recruitment procedure is exactly the same as that carried out for an individual undertaking a role.

 

Assistants and deputies

Job sharing does not replace the role of assistant or deputy. It is up to the appointing Commissioner to discuss with the individuals concerned:

  • whether the role is to be a job-share, or one or more people take on the role of deputy or assistant, or both.
  • if the role to be shared involves ex-officio membership of any committee it must be discussed and agreed which individual will be responsible for attending the meetings.
