Working Mums Website

Our site was founded by senior communications manager Gillian Nissim in 2006 after the birth of her second child. She found herself and many of her friends in a similar position, needing flexible yet challenging work, but not being able to find it. The business has grown fast and now employs 14 staff, many of whom are working mums.

As working parents, we've experienced the issues associated with going back to work after an extended period at home, suffered crises of confidence, undergone career changes and managed (and are still managing) our way through the ups and downs of combining parenthood with work we enjoy. We know what it is like to try and find jobs and business opportunities that are challenging and rewarding, but which also offer flexibility.

As employers, we also know that it is not always easy to find really good, experienced and committed people - and know that offering a range of flexible working practices - including full time with flexible hours, part time, compressed hours, homeworking and term time only - can really help secure the perfect employee.

Who we work with: We work with hundreds of employers - from large corporate firms to small businesses, and have a large database of professional women seeking work in a wide variety of fields. Candidates register for free and can file their CVs, whilst employers pay a small fee to post their job on the site and contact candidates who match their requirements. There are also fantastic opportunites for employers to promote their brand, and their flexible working policies. For more information visit our employer pages.

More than a jobsite! WorkingMums.co.uk also offers much more than job opportunities. Mums can also search for small business and self-employed opportunities in our Franchise-Zone, and franchisors can seek to expand their brand by reaching thousands of potential franchisees. We also offer advice, news and working mums' blogs, in order to share news, views, experiences and information with working mums everywhere.

While working mums are what we know about best, we hope that Dads, carers and other flexible job seekers will also find the jobs and information on our website relevant and useful to them too. WorkingMums.co.uk welcomes Dads, carers and other flexible job seekers.
