Workingmums.co.uk  are holding their second Workingmums LIVE London exhibition on Tuesday 27th March 2012 – to be held again at the Business Design Centre, Islington.

The first exhibition, held in March 2011 at the same venue, was a roaring success. Over 4,000 people pre-registered on the website before the event and on the day the centre was buzzing with activity.

Many employers had stands, including John Lewis, Santander, H&M, Hobbs, UBS and sponsors Deloitte. Their aim was offer job opportunities to and meet up with talented and experienced professional women who want to work flexibly or in a family friendly way. 

There were also a host of support and advice organisations on hand,  including Working Families, the National Childminding Association and The Daycare Trust and for those keen to retrain, Home Learning College led a section on courses and training.

Workingmums.co.uk‘s founder Gillian Nissim welcomed everyone to the event, and introduced TV presenter Fiona Phillips who gave the keynote speech this morning about her experiences of balancing a challenging job, two small children and two parents with Alzheimer’s.

Fiona’s session was followed by a series of seminars on everything from starting a business to negotiating flexible working, with top class speakers giving advice. Microsoft and Lloyds Bank also gave sessions on starting a business and CV and Interview Advisers provided a free CV clinic.

Next year’s event will grow in size, featuring space for more employers, franchises and support organisations to exhibit and guide women back into the world of work and small business. Our key note speaker, Joanna Gosling, BBC Newsreader and author of Simply Wonderwoman will open the event before a range of interactive seminars begin, advising on returning to work to setting up your own business.
