About Us

The workforce in the UK is changing. By 2030 half of all adults in the UK will be over 50. Five generations make up the workforce today and 50+ employment rates are rising. Understanding the challenges and opportunities of an ageing population is vital if we want to create productive, innovative and inclusive multi-generational teams as we all lead longer working lives.

workingwise.co.uk is a job and community site specially focused on older workers looking for flexibility and improved work-life balance, and the employers who recognise what they have to offer.

About WM People Ltd

More than 10 years ago the first website in our portfolio, workingmums.co.uk, 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. She decided to bridge the gap between those employers who were able to offer flexibility, whether that was full-time work with flexi hours or some homeworking or part-time work or any other form of flexible working, and parents who were seeking flexible positions.

Since then it the business has grown significantly, alongside a shift in how families manage home and working life - and the changing challenges organisations face in retaining and recruiting new talent. More than ever there is a focus towards enabling dads to be more involved with parenting by supporting them in finding flexible jobs, as well as encouraging more fathers to take Shared Parental Leave and other schemes. workingdads.co.uk was launched in early 2019 to cater for this.

Flexibility for all

Since flexible working is becoming the new norm for everyone, workingwise.co.uk of course also welcomes all flexible job seekers regardless of their age, gender or circumstances - we welcome everyone to apply for a more flexible way of working.
