RAMBOLL RETURN TO WORK PROGRAMME

Their mission to create sustainable societies where people and nature flourish makes Ramboll a workplace where everyone is encouraged to contribute, grow and innovate, while being guided by deeply rooted core values.
Why they have launched a Return to Work programme
Every year many extremely talented people choose to pause their careers for a variety of reasons. Ramboll’s Return to Work Programme aims to reinvigorate the careers of those who have taken time out, ringfencing flexible opportunities for returners and providing additional support to ease the transition.
Ramboll has partnered with Inclusivity to create a programme that will help you get back up to speed in a friendly and welcoming environment.
ABOUT THE PROGRAMME
How the programme works
The Returners programme starts on Monday 10th January 2022 and lasts for six months until Friday 8th July 2022.
You will be part of a cohort of fellow returners. These paid opportunities will bring you up to speed with the current market while letting you put your past career expertise to use. While there are no guarantees, these fixed-term positions are designed as a stepping stone back into a professional career; our goal is to secure you a permanent position by the end of the programme.
You will be eligible for benefits and annual leave from day one. Ramboll has a positive approach to flexible and hybrid working; they welcome applications from those seeking to work full- or part-time and, in most circumstances, offer additional flexibility around working hours and regular home working. In some situations, candidates may be offered to start sooner, should that be of interest, and match business needs.

- Conducting first interviews
