If you’re like most early careers/emerging talent/future talent leads I speak to, you’re doing a lot and doing it well.

But if you’re honest?

You’re still plugging gaps that shouldn’t exist.

✅ You’ve got strong early talent coming in
✅ Your programme has all the right pieces
✅ You’re committed to making it a brilliant experience

But the outcomes? The grad/apprentice work readiness? The manager engagement?

That part’s still missing.

Most early careers teams I work with want three things:

- Grads & apprentices who show up confident, capable and ready for real-world work
- Managers who get it and know how to coach, lead and support Gen Z
- A joined-up early careers journey that doesn’t rely on firefighting

But here’s the reality:
❌ Young people are overwhelmed and unsure how to navigate work (especially as AI reshapes it)
❌ Managers feel underprepared or don’t engage at all
❌ You’re left trying to bridge the gap with limited time, tools or support

That’s where I come in.
🌟 I deliver high-impact training that builds work-ready young professionals with future-ready skills
🌟 I empower managers to engage, support and coach Gen Z in a world shaped by change and technology
🌟 I help early careers teams like yours create experiences that work, today and for the future of work

🧚 Why me?
I’ve been in their shoes. I failed my exams, got fired from my first job and felt totally unprepared for the working world.

Eventually, I worked my way into leadership and saw the same struggles playing out again and again  talented young people feeling lost, and managers unsure how to support them.

That’s why I started Fairy Job Mother.

Real results:
💼 66% boost in line manager confidence at M&S
🌱 100% increase in apprentice work readiness at Accenture
💜 93% of grads & apprentices recommend my training at BT
👥 20,000+ early talent supported | 500+ managers trained | 15+ early careers teams supported

And plenty more.

Let’s chat about how to build an early careers experience where your young people thrive, your managers feel confident and your programmes are ready for the future of work, not stuck reacting to it.
