TWWork (formerly 'This Woman's Work') is a multi-faceted career resource and content library, that has interview-based podcasts at its core.
TWWork was set-up to tackle two fundamental problems:
Because fitting into the working world is hard
For lots of us, but especially for (our main/core audience of) women who have made sacrifices for their children/families and when they try to ‘come back’ to work, (too) often find they no longer fit into a career, or indeed a role they once held dear.
But fitting in is a problem that affects not just working mothers… It has never been harder to find, fit into and thrive in the right job, which is madness. But a madness that TWWork wants to help cure.
Because the recruitment system/industry globally is outdated
... and fundamentally restrictive, and it needs a massive shake-up!
Countless talent is going under-utilised, globally, either because it can’t be ‘easily’ or ‘conveniently’ found, or because recruiters only want to look for linear candidates that fit into predetermined boxes.
Or, because more and more AI and tech-based recruitment solutions think they can find the ‘right’ people via data and coding algorithms, which ignore everything special and unique about a person.
This is a human problem and we are going to ‘cure it’ in a human way.

Hearing that bright, vibrant, colourful, Jodie, had spent the bulk of her career in accountancy... And that she still works as one, absolutely blew our minds!
... Because numbers people can't be really creative, too... Can they?
Yes they can. And Jodie is. She has curated a career that not only pays her well, for a job that she's really good at; but one that simultaneously allows her to explore and expand her creative side. A side that was innate in her, but had perhaps been silenced during her early working life, as corporate drive and ambition took centre stage.
Jodie is a brilliant example of people (and particularly women), fitting, but also 'not' fitting into boxes. And as their careers progressed, however successful that may have been, there's still an itch... An itch that's small and even relatively quiet at the start; but with time and circumstantial shifts, grows and grows, until it gets to a point that it just HAS to be scratched.
Please meet Jodie.
