About Tech Returners

Who we are – Tech Returners aims to remove the barriers that returners of all ages, genders and life circumstances face after a career break and, as a result, help to tackle the skills shortage in tech.

Why we’re passionate about Returners – Research shows that women who return to work can often be forced to return to lower skilled or lower paid jobs because of a lack of flexibility around family, paying a penalty for having a career break. Tech Returners aims to tackle this important issue for those who wish to have a career and flexibility around their home lives.
