Returning to Work After Parental Leave: How to Make a Fresh Start

Care work, nappies, the search for daycare, maybe even the first school years, and now the step back into working life. Returning to work after a family break is no small moment. It's a new beginning, often with mixed feelings: excitement, uncertainty, and sometimes the question «Can I still do this, and which employer is right for me?».

Frequently asked questions

How do I explain the gap in my CV?+

Honestly and confidently. A family break is not a flaw, it's part of your journey. Emphasise what you bring: your experience and the skills you developed during this time. Flexible entry models also give you the chance to prove yourself directly in practice.


Is part-time or temporary work better for returning to work?+

That depends on your goal. Part-time offers a lasting, predictable balance. Temporary work or Try & Hire are a good fit if you first want to get back into things and try them out before committing.
