Taxation of earnings whilst overseas?

My initial intention was to open up as an auto-entrepreneur in France to provide consultancy services for my industry (Logistics and Transport), but this has not yet started. This was the reason for my joining the forum - to get the benefit of all the information available to me.

There is now a good chance that I may take on a permanent position with an overseas company that will entail me working three months on followed by one month off (for which I would most likely be in France). However my wife (currently retired and receiving UK old-age pension, with E121/S1 coverage for health) would remain resident full-time in France.

My question is how this can be handled under French income tax, the country I may be working in is a Tax-Free one, so nothing there - but if I put my earnings into my French bank account, how would it work? Especially as I would be out of the country for longer that I would be in country. It would appear to be 9 months away but only 3 months resident in France.
