Jess Heagren speaking about Careers After Babies

Hear from Jess, founder of Careers after babies

Hi! I'm Jess, the passionate founder of Careers After Babies and the author of the groundbreaking report, Careers After Babies: The Uncomfortable Truth.

As a proud mother of four, I really understand the daily struggles faced by working parents.

But in my extensive experience as a former Director in the financial services industry, I also get the problems that organisations face in supporting their employees who are also parents.

I bridge the gap between working parents and employers, equipping organisations with the tools to fully support their working parents to succeed in their professional roles but also to maintain the work-life balance they desire, ultimately finding fulfillment both at work and at home. Because when they have that….they stay. My talks urging organisations to stop losing invaluable talent and wasting money, the effect of which is a flourishing work culture and better business outcomes.

Whether you are part of an employee resource group, a team of Directors or HR professionals, or an organiser of an industry-wide event, seeking a dynamic speaker who can offer practical solutions and ignite change within your organisation or event, look no further.
