Flexible Work Arrangement at Parexel
What’s your preference?
In-office, home-based or a mix?
At Parexel, we believe work should fit your life—not the other way around. Depending on your role and location, working remotely, in an office (or in a hybrid work model) is a viable work arrangement consistent with Parexel’s approach to fostering an inclusive, flexible and productive work environment.
Parexel has long been at the forefront of flexible work approaches, providing colleagues with the supportive culture, technology, and tools needed to succeed in their preferred work environment.
Based on feedback from our colleagues—who overwhelmingly expressed preference for flexible working options—Parexel formally introduced our Flexible Work Arrangement (FWA) program in early 2021 across nearly all our global locations. In 2025, approximately 77% of our global workforce is either hybrid or works from home.
Through this program, our colleagues continue to work in ways that best suit their needs, feeling more empowered, efficient, and valued while maintaining high levels of productivity. This approach has strengthened our connections with each other and enhanced our ability to deliver for customers and patients.
How does it work?
As a new colleague joining the company, you will discuss your eligibility and work preferences with your Line Manager and agree on the most suitable designation: Stationary, Flex, Mobile or Remote (see below). You’ll agree on an option based on your role, location, job expectations and any unique circumstances.
Stationary work
Colleagues who will be in a Parexel office four to five days per week with dedicated seating.
Flexible work
Colleagues who will be in the office two to three days per week with unassigned seating.
Mobile work
Colleagues who will be occasionally visiting the office one day per week or less with access to community touch-down seating.
Remote work
Colleagues who are working remotely full-time and rarely visit the office.
