Are You Ready for Remote Work?

The ongoing skills shortage is pushing firms online, whether that’s offshoring to widen your talent pool or offering flexible working to attract and retain top performers. Join us on the 25th November at 10.30am for this practical session where we’ll show you how to become truly “remote-ready” across three pillars: the tech and tools, the policies and compliance, and the day-to-day ways of working that keep teams effective, accountable, and engaged.

Key takeaways:

✅ Being Practically Ready

·       Cloud-first systems or having a remote server (MTD makes it logical to just go cloud!)

·       Cybersecurity essentials (software/protections, user training, insurance)

·       Document sharing and access controls

·       Equipment provision & internet connectivity considerations

✅ Being Contractually & Compliance Ready

·       Cybersecurity, work-from-home & privacy policies (and real implications)

·       Equipment / internet provision or reimbursement policies

·       Job descriptions, onboarding plans & key HR considerations

✅ Being Work Ready

·       Task, time & calendar management foundations

·       Workflow planning that scales

·       Work & Performance monitoring & measurement that’s fair and useful

·       Feedback, collaboration, communication & relationship-building

·       Training 

Who should attend

Owners, partners, leaders and HR leads in accounting firms expanding or moving to remote/hybrid/offshore teams.

Resources

That’s not all attendees will receive the Remote-Ready Checklist after the session.
