When Work Works

The New Jobs Board Connecting Parents with Family-Friendly Employers

Finding Truly Family-Friendly Jobs Just Got Easier

For too long, parents searching for flexible jobs or truly family-friendly employers have faced a frustrating challenge: many companies say they support working parents, but the reality often doesn’t match up. The real test isn’t just the policies on paper—it’s how line managers and company culture support employees in practice.

That’s why Careers After Babies has launched When Work Works, a dedicated jobs board where working parents can find companies that genuinely understand and support them. No more guesswork. No more empty promises. Just real, flexible opportunities with businesses committed to creating world-class workplaces for working parents.

Why We Created When Work Works

Before launching Careers After Babies, our founder helped parents find part-time and flexible work. But she quickly realised that unless a company is fully committed to a family-friendly culture, “flexibility” can be just a buzzword. That’s why we’ve worked with businesses and experts to build a framework for family-friendly workplaces—and now, we’re using that framework to create employers that actually get it.

How When Work Works Helps Parents Find Family-Friendly Jobs

We’ve already had hundreds of parents sign up for job alerts (and we’re just getting started!). Whether you’re looking for remote jobs for parents, part-time roles, or flexible work options, this platform is designed to take the stress out of the job search and connect you with companies that share your values.
