Ask me a QRachel and Hannah AKA "The Job Share Pair" worked their way up through the corporate ranks to HR Director level. They were both – and still are – really committed, motivated, determined women, passionate about work and not wanting to take a step back. Their first babies were born six days apart and they began job sharing when they returned from maternity leave and really found their groove and made it work brilliantly well. In 2020 they set up their Instagram account The Job Share Pair to loudly and proudly spread the word about job-sharing as being an excellent way to retain female leaders. Originally a hobby, this passion project has become a business and they’ve left their corporate lives behind. IN THIS EPISODE:Maternity leaveHow they came to be sharing a roleWhat a job share is and is notThe benefits of job-sharing for the team, the organisation and the job sharersWhen one of the pair goes on maternity leaveHow to find a job share partnerHow to approach a line manager about the idea of a job shareHOW WAS YOUR RETURN TO WORK?Could your return to work have been smoother?
