Chartered Institute of Public Relations Partner Announcement We are thrilled to announce that the CIPR are partnering our #Back2Business Career Accelerator Programme.   Avril Lee CIPR Board Director “The CIPR is proud to be asked to partner this programme – we worked closely with f1 on their social change programmes. Our support for #Back2Business reflects a shared desire to enrich the Comms & Marketing industries with multi-generational teams – ensuring that the industry welcomes back older women to their leadership teams, after career breaks.”   The programme is the only UK marketing, digital, PR and sports marketing focused returners programme that upskills, trains and supports the ‘return’ of top talent into the workplace after a family/caring career break.    Amanda Fone, co-founder of the Back2Business Career Accelerator Programme and CEO of f1 Recruitment Limited recruitment, says: “Women’s career paths often look very different to men’s career paths. Wiggly rather than linear. Women in the UK still take longer career breaks than men for caring reasons and can find themselves locked out of their careers when they try to return. This leaves an industry bereft of some of its best, most experienced people. Our bootcamp is about rebuilding lost confidence with a structured programme that reconnects talent to an industry and vice versa.”   This free-to-attend six-day reorientation bootcamp for professionals who have taken 3 years + out of their careers for caring reasons, is now open for applications. Please do pass this onto friends or  relatives who might benefit from this.     APPLY BEFORE CHRISTMAS https://lnkd.in/dsQpqcxG   Ready to rediscover your professional journey?

Communications plays a really important role in the railways and we want to encourage more people to join the rail industry and help to shape our culture.”   The programme is the only UK marketing, digital, PR and sports marketing focused returners programme that upskills, trains and supports the ‘return’ of top talent into the workplace after a family/caring career break.  Apply here https://lnkd.in/dsQpqcxG f1 Recruitment Limited are experts in Marketing, Communications & Sports Marketing.

Why do some men behave badly? Mary Ann Sieghart explores this in The Guardian. My brother-in-law, Richard Caulfield—brother to two sisters, father of two daughters, brother-in-law to two sisters—sent me the article. Love that this came from you. Thank you Richard! This topic is close to my heart, so I shared it with my boss, Amanda Fone, who co-founded #Back2Business, our free programme helping women return to work after career breaks for caregiving. Amanda said “you need to read Mary Ann’s book, #theauthoritygap, and put this onto our programme’s reading list!” #Back2Business is a life-changer because many women lack confidence after time away. Each year, I wonder: would men need a similar programme, or would they naturally feel ready to return? The programme is open to men, though none have applied yet. So then I reached out to Mary Ann to tell her about our brilliant returners programme, I said, maybe I can reach out to you more publicly so that the debate and the issues gain momentum and programmes like this become government initiatives!  …and she emailed me back. Awesome and amazing, “Sorry for the slow reply. Yes, why don’t you do a LinkedIn post” and here we are including Mary Ann’s quote. “I remember losing my confidence after just 12 weeks of maternity leave (it was all we were offered in the 1990s). I’d have loved a programme like this to help me back to work. And I’m sure it would be just as effective for men.” Mary Ann Sieghart.

Why returners should be factored into every DEI recruitment strategy Hear from Lydia Martin former delegate on f1 Recruitment Limited returners programme #back2business and now Healthcare Associate Director, APCO https://lnkd.in/dM74u-zr After starting her career in healthcare PR at Hill and Knowlton, and spending eight years in central Government communications, Lydia Martin took a career break to look after her children. Her return to work was kick-started by the #BacktoBusinessship 2020, f1 Recruitment Limited recruitment’s returnship programme. Soon afterwards, Lydia secured charity and NHS contracts before landing her current role at advocacy and advisory firm, APCO. Here, she provides valued strategic counsel and media relations support to help clients in healthcare and life sciences build their reputation. #Back2Business #CareerComeback #Marketing #Communications #SportsMarketing #LondonEvents #ProfessionalDevelopment

Speaking from the heart! Partnering with Clapton Girls' Academy has been an honour for NoTurningBack2020. Earlier this month, our Ambassadors attended their Diversity Careers Event, so when Nikki S. asked if we would support her Neurodiversity career day we were thrilled to be able to suggest our very own Cameron Partridge at f1 Recruitment Limited recruitment to talk to the students. Cameron is a Neurodiversity champion and speaks from the heart about his career journey and personal experiences Cameron reflected: "It was rewarding to speak with a fantastic group of pupils about navigating neurodiversity in the workplace, disclosing disabilities, building confidence to seek support, and highlighting the unique strengths neurodiverse individuals bring to organizations." Thank you, Nikki, for hosting such impactful events – Clapton Girls' Academy is lucky to have you! f1 Recruitment Limited are experts in Marketing, Communications & Sports Marketing.

"Wow Rail Delivery Group - I never knew Public Affairs roles like this were a thing! How did you get into that?" Brilliant for NoTurningBack2020 Ambassadors including Rosie Greaves to meet Clapton Girls' Academy girls in person today, our two stars spent the afternoon talking to groups of 7-8 students at a time - rotating around during the 90 minute slot. The Ambassadors talked about their career journey so far (qualifications, diversions, their current role and company, application processes, advice) and then fielded questions. Students were offered the chance to research live apprenticeships, internships and jobs at the Inclusive Employer Community page Nikki S.
