Returnship

A returnship is a professional-level paid placement, specifically targeted at professionals who have taken an extended career break, with transition support for the returner and their line manager.  The initial fixed term contract ranges from 3-12 months and the career break criteria is typically at least 18 or 24 months. There is an intent to hire at the end of the placement, provided the returnship has been successful for both sides.

Using the returnship construct, you can hire returners as a cohort (returnship programme) or individually, providing flexibility to integrate returners hiring into your talent strategy in a way which suits your business.

Returnship hiring allows you access a highly skilled, experienced talent pool ready to re-enter the workforce, with a built-in trial period for both sides. With our structured training and support, your organisation is set up for success and returner participants quickly integrate and add value.
