Career Transition
How can we help you make best use of your talents in the social sector?
We spend around 90,000 hours of our life at work – that is a massive investment, so making that time purposeful and rewarding is critical for our wellbeing and our happiness. Today, the opportunities for making a positive difference in the world are many and varied.
At the Eastside Primetimers Foundation, we help people like you who have experience, skills and knowledge who now want to work or volunteer in the charity and social enterprise sector. Whether you feel stuck and long for a greater sense of meaning and significance from your work, or you have had a rewarding career in the commercial sector and now want to dedicate your time, commitment and learned skills to another cause that you believe in, we are here to help.
Discovery
It can be hard to jump into a new sector without first doing some research. In this section we provide tips, advice, links and case studies to help you make sense of the social sector.
Volunteering
We strongly recommend you use the openings that voluneering provides to learn about the sector and make your transition more targeted.
