Successful career-shifters

  • Indre
    From Branding to Beauty

    “I knew that I wanted to change things, but stepping out of my comfort zone felt frightening.”

    When an eye-opening exercise put Indre's career into perspective, she found the courage to get into action. Now she's balancing a portfolio career and enjoying a whole new sense of purpose. Here's her story.

  • Image of Lucy Eckley
    From Communications to Brand Storytelling

    “Each night, I'd sit down at the computer and search for a job that didn't exist. It was soul destroying.”

    Instead, Lucy Eckley decided to design her own career. It's taken longer than she expected, but here's how she's doing work that combines her passions with the flexibility and freedom she was looking for.

  • Image of Tim Robertson
    From Analyst to Web Developer

    “I couldn't bear dragging myself to work any longer.”

    Tim Robertson felt undervalued and unskilled. Longing to find more buzzy, creative and technical work, he took a big financial risk and retrained. It’s been an eye-opening reinvention with a steep learning curve, but he’s finally found a career path that ticks all his boxes. Here's how he did it.

  • Issy
    From Consulting to Interior Design

    “I felt my soul was dying a little more with each day that went by.”

    Issy Zinaburg needed a change. She'd spent ten years successfully working her way up the corporate ladder, but knew she had to get off. So she went back to one of her passions – one that she'd given up for her 'proper' job – and made a new career out of it. This is her story.

And, if you’re curious, the person featured in the photo at the top of this page is Chiaki, who made a successful shift after taking part in our Career Change Launch Pad. The photo was taken by Ken, who also made a career change after the Launch Pad.

Our story

We started Careershifters because we couldn’t find the inspiration and support we were looking for when we made our career changes.

We've made our own shifts into more fulfilling work and we want to help you do the same.

 

We’re proud to be a B Corporation

B Corps are businesses that balance purpose and profit. They're legally required to consider the impact of their decisions on their workers, customers, suppliers, community, and the environment.

We've been certified as a B Corporation since 2017 – and are proud to be part of a movement of people using business as a force for good.

 

Time to Change

Life’s too short to be unhappy at work.

We help bright, motivated people who feel stuck in the wrong career find and move into fulfilling work.
