We usually kick off the paid 1-year program in April or May. We have a number of experienced professional openings that might be of interest. And we can tailor the level of support you might need to you.
Open roles and opportunities change every year
You could work in one of a variety of areas including: Sustainability, Wealth Management, Infrastructure, Project and Change Management, or Technology.
Whichever you pursue, it's a great stepping stone to restart your career. And you'll develop skills you can transfer to other roles.
Grow, develop, and network
Along with coaching from The Diversity Project specifically developed to support career returners you'll also have full access to our online learning platform which will help you continue to build your skills.
From day one, along with support from your manager and mentors, you'll join a network of peers to help you integrate into the business.
"The Returner Program is designed to genuinely help talented people to thrive after taking time out and I would recommend it to anyone who believes they have value to add to the workplace but are unsure about how to take that first step."
