What is Jobs Academy?

Jobs Academy helps women find clarity, build confidence, and access the support they need to secure meaningful work. Whether you’ve been out of the workforce for a little or a long while, Jobs Academy walks alongside you – building your return-to-work toolkit, inspiring self-belief, connecting you with employers and cheering you on, every step of the way.

Participants join a growing community of jobseekers who understand the ups and downs of the return-to-work journey. They get access to expert advice, participate in practical workshops, benefit from mentoring and coaching, as well as unlocking a host of other practical tools and opportunities.

Jobs Academy was built with flexibility in mind. Participants move through the material at their own pace, choosing what’s most useful to them. From 2027, the Jobs Academy platform will deliver AI-enabled hyper-personalisation, ensuring an elevated experience tailored to every participant.

Proven results

Since 2021, Jobs Academy has helped thousands of women like you get job ready and take control of their financial future. Built on real evidence and designed around the realities of your everyday life, Jobs Academy is here to help you build the confidence, skills and opportunities you deserve.
