NHS Fellowship
The Leaders Plus NHS Fellowship is open to all NHS clinical and non-clinical staff who are passionate about career development and have childcare responsibilities for young children between the ages of 0 and 18.
Applicants will need to have a role (or have previously held a role) with significant responsibility, i.e. a management or leadership role.
We are especially looking for individuals who are willing to actively engage with a group of their peers, who are keen to progress their careers and make a difference to others.
The Fellowship is fully inclusive and we particularly welcome applications from the LGBTQIA+ community, ethnic minorities and anyone who identifies as having a disability. We are actively looking for people from these underrepresented communities to apply for the Fellowship as we want to create equal career progression opportunities.
Cross-Sector Fellowship
The Cross-Sector Fellowship is for managers and leaders from all industries and sectors with significant childcare responsibilities for babies through to children aged 18.
We welcome applications from parents who are on maternity leave, shared parental leave or adoption leave and we are open to both mothers and fathers. You can also apply to the Fellowship whilst you are pregnant.
About half of our Fellows are pregnant, on maternity leave, shared parental leave or adoption leave. The remaining half have recently returned or have returned in the last 10 years.
We actively encourage individuals from groups that are underrepresented in leadership roles to apply. This includes for example individuals with a BAME or LGBTQI+ background.
Our previous Fellows have come from a range of employers such as the BBC, NHS, HSBC, Action Tutoring and the Salvation Army.
Future Leaders Plus
For parents who are in a role with no management responsibilities, perhaps had kids before progressing, and now want to get their career progression unstuck.
Individuals who:
- are in a role without management responsibilities but looking to take that next step up and kick-start their progression.
- have significant caring responsibilities for children under the age of 18 or are currently on maternity, adoption or parental leave.
- feel stuck in their role because of their caring responsibilities
- feel paralysed in their career progression through fear that progressing their career will negatively affect family life.
- may have taken time out of their career to focus on family and need help regaining confidence and building a vision for progression.
- want to make a difference and create a world in which parents do not feel that they have to choose between family and career.
Senior Directors Fellowship
For Senior Directors with a number of years experience at Director Level and C-suite professionals, supporting them to maintain and develop senior leadership careers without compromising family life.
