The education sector has been impacted significantly by the COVID-19 pandemic, with many schools and universities shifting to remote and flexible work arrangements. This shift has highlighted the need for better work management in the education sector. This paper examines the Future of work management in the education sector and the potential benefits and challenges of remote and flexible work arrangements. The results suggest that remote and flexible work arrangements can improve work-life balance and increase productivity but may also lead to increased isolation and reduced collaboration. We presented some study cases, including the experience of Jadara University in the transition from face-to-face education to remote learning and the actions taken by the managers. Recommendations for successfully implementing remote and flexible work in the education sector include clear communication, regular check-ins, and providing necessary resources and support.
