Returnship programmes
Returnship programmes are a great entry point for CAs returning to work after a career break.
Returnship programmes provide an opportunity for experienced professionals who have taken an extended career break to get back into senior corporate roles. A returnship is a paid short-term employment contract, with the possibility of a permanent role at the end of the programme.
A returnship programme typically lasts for 3-6 months, where participants take on work based on their skills, interests and prior experience. The programmes offer support like buddying schemes, training, coaching or mentorships to ease the transition back into work.

Hymans Robertson is partnering with Women Returners to launch their Hymans Robertson Returner Programme starting in Scotland in February 2022. The programme is a fully supported route back to professional level work for individuals who have taken a career break of 18 months or more. It offers a professionally paid placement of 6 months, with the high likelihood of a permanent role at the end of the programme.
The launch event will be online and is your opportunity to learn more about the programme, informally meet the team and ask questions. You will also benefit from a Women Returners’ coaching workshop!
