JOB SUMMARY

FDM Returners Programme

Are you looking to return to work after a career break? If you are ready to restart your career and have experience in business or technology, this could be the ideal opportunity for you. At FDM, we help you back into a rewarding and successful career. Whether it has been 1 year or 20 years, our Returners Programme is dedicated to supporting professionals who have taken a career break on their journey back to work.

FDM Group is a global professional services provider focusing on launching and restarting careers across a variety of sectors. We have centres located across Europe, North America and Asia-Pacific and we currently have over 3,800 consultants working with over 200 high profile clients.

Re-skill and accelerate your progression

As part of the programme, you will receive seven weeks of fully-funded training designed to reconnect you with your existing skills, refresh your knowledge and equip you with industry-recognised qualifications. It covers professional skills and business and tech-specific training, focusing on Business Analysis, Project Management, Excel and Agile methodologies, ensuring that you are prepared for any career path ahead of you.

Our academy centres where you will train are located in London, Leeds or Glasgow. Once you have completed your training, you will start working on exciting projects with our leading clients as a fully integrated member of their teams. Many returners go into Business Analysis or Project Management roles; however, we will help you find the role that best suits you and your background.
