There is an incredible amount of untapped talent out there just waiting for the right opportunity.

When Julianna saw job ads for disability support, she had a realisation: "I could do this."

But making a career pivot from scratch is daunting. Thanks to flexible online training and support from the Hero Foundation, they successfully turned that spark into reality, ultimately landing a highly fulfilling role at SEQUAL.

When you align passionate people with the work they actually want to do you get highly motivated workers, incredible quality of care, and happy clients. It’s the ultimate win-win.

🇬🇧 53% of UK SME leaders are worried about unintentionally breaking new employment laws.

The Fair Work Agency's chief executive has a message for them.

In the latest episode of Inside the Workroom, Kevin Fitzgerald sat down with Lisa Pinney MBE, CEO of the Fair Work Agency, the body responsible for enforcing employment law across the UK's five million businesses – to cut through the noise around the Employment Rights Act.

Lisa's take on the anxiety most business owners are feeling right now:

"A lot of these are things that have been the right things to do for a while – they've just got more powers, more teeth."

Most hiring delays don't happen at the interview stage. They happen after the offer - in the admin that follows.

Reference checks are one of the biggest culprits.

We've simplified the whole process inside Employment Hero, so your team spends less time chasing and more time on the stuff that matters.

You’re just one conversation away from the exact solution your business needs.

While talking about the realities of scaling at our recent Partner Summit, Simba from Flo100 hit the nail on the head. He reminded us that obsessing over product features is a distraction.

What actually matters is deeply understanding your customers.

And the fastest way to solve those growth challenges? Getting out of your silo and having spontaneous, real-world conversations with a network of like-minded leaders.

That is exactly why we bring the Employment Hero ecosystem together.

A massive thank you to Simba and everyone else who joined us to share ideas and tackle the future of work!

When you’re running a business, you shouldn't need an entire team just to manually process data.

While walking the floor at our recent Partner Summit, we caught up with Saf from HRXconnect to find out what conversations were actually moving the needle for attendees.

Saf's biggest takeaway was discovering how to completely automate data using workflows, allowing teams to simply review the output rather than building it from scratch.

Instead of throwing headcount at administrative busywork, you can let our AI-powered Employment Operating System handle the heavy lifting.

Getting rejected because you lack the "required experience" is the quickest way to kill your job search motivation.

But what if you didn't have to navigate that gap alone?

After struggling to find a way back into the workforce, Julianna connected with The Hero Foundation. Through targeted online upskilling and incredible one-on-one support, they completely bypassed the usual roadblocks and landed a fulfilling new role at SEQUAL.

If you are serious about finding a new career direction but feel unqualified on paper, you have absolutely nothing to lose.

What can Leeds United and Leeds Rhinos teach you about running a business?

Longevity is not luck. It’s culture, resilient people, and a refusal to let short-term pain redefine your long-term purpose.

These clubs have fought to remain in the heart of the city. If you run a business in Yorkshire, you’ve likely done the same.

That’s why we’re hosting Built to Last: Lessons from Leeds' Greatest Institutions.

Hosted by our UK VP of Marketing Maisie Goss, you’ll hear from Jamie Jones-Buchanan (Leeds Rhinos CEO), Rob Oates (MD, Leeds Rhinos) and Robbie Evans (MD, Leeds United).
