Career Transitions London

Career Accelerator

Your degree got you this far. Now it’s time to turn your potential into professional momentum. Breaking into the job market can be difficult. You may have the qualifications, but still find yourself wondering: \- Why isn’t my CV getting results? \- How do I stand out without years of experience? \- How do I build confidence when networking? \- What are employers actually looking for? \- And how do I prove what I can do before someone gives me the opportunity? CAP Summit is designed to help you start answering those questions. Join us for an interactive, career-focused event built for graduates, early-career professionals, and ambitious job seekers who want practical guidance, stronger professional confidence, and a clearer route into the career they want. ## What to expect This isn’t an event where you sit and listen. You’ll take part in practical activities designed around situations you’re likely to face in the real world — from introducing yourself confidently and joining conversations to understanding how to position yourself more effectively in today’s job market. You’ll explore: • Networking & Confidence — Learn how to approach people, join conversations naturally and make a stronger first impression. • Career Positioning — Understand how your CV, LinkedIn presence and professional identity influence how employers see you. • The Experience Problem — Discover ways to move beyond “I need experience to get experience” and start building evidence of what you can actually do. • What Employers Look For — Explore the professional behaviours and competencies that help people get hired and succeed once they enter the workplace. • Practical Career Direction — Leave with a clearer understanding of the areas you need to strengthen and the next steps you can take. ## Discover the Career Accelerator Programme You’ll also be introduced to CAP — the Career Accelerator Programme, a structured 12-week programme designed for people who are serious about building a career, not simply finding their next job. CAP combines professional development with experience inside a live business. Participants work on real projects, receive weekly one-to-one feedback and develop across seven professional competencies. The goal is simple: give you the skills, experience and evidence to compete for the career you actually want. ## Who should attend? CAP Summit is particularly relevant if you’re a: 🎓 Graduate trying to break into the professional job market 💼 Job seeker struggling to stand out 🚀 Early-career professional looking to accelerate your development 📈 Ambitious individual who wants practical experience rather than another certificate If you’ve worked hard to get where you are but still feel stuck, overlooked or unsure what your next move should be, this event is for you. ## Come ready to participate. Meet people. Practice. Ask questions. Challenge yourself. And leave with a clearer idea of what it takes to move from qualified on paper to credible in the workplace. Places are limited; reserve your place at CAP Summit today.

Figuring It Out Together — Coffee, Conversations & New Beginnings.

Well, the first meetup happened, we met some interesting people, had some great conversations, and guess what? We’re still figuring it out! 😄 So here we are, back for round two! We’re still a new group, still a bunch of strangers, and still not entirely sure where this is going — but that’s kind of the whole point. Whether you’re between jobs, thinking about quitting, exploring something new, feeling stuck, or just looking to meet people and have some random, meaningful (or completely meaningless!) conversations, come join us. No agendas, no awkward networking, no motivational speeches. Just coffee, new faces, different perspectives and conversations that could go absolutely anywhere. You don’t need a plan, a purpose or even a good reason to show up. If you enjoy a little randomness, meeting new people and figuring life out as you go, you’ll fit right in. See you there! ☕✨ P.S. Returning faces and first-timers are equally welcome. We’re all still strangers becoming friends.

The one pitfall every transformation needs to avoid

I’ve worked on several large-scale agile transformations, and one theme has consistently stood out: lasting change depends on leadership being part of the transformation, not simply supporting it from the sidelines. Leadership endorsement matters, but sustainable change comes when leaders understand, role-model and reinforce the new ways of working themselves. Their behaviours, decisions and the environment they create can either accelerate progress or unintentionally pull an organisation back towards old habits. **In this talk:** * I’ll share real stories from large-scale transformations where teams demonstrated measurable improvements, and explore how leadership behaviours influenced whether those improvements were able to grow and endure. * I’ll share examples of significant successes, supported by data, and what helped create the conditions for those results as well as what happened when those conditions later changed. * I’ll explore why leadership development is such an important part of organisational change, and how bringing leaders into the learning journey early can help new ways of working become embedded and sustainable. Ultimately, transformation is not something leaders sponsor for others to do. Leadership behaviour is part of the system — and can make or break the conditions for lasting improvement.

Women on the RISE - Networking Evening

Join us to network and grab a drink or a meal. We will have a space dedicated for our group. Looking forward to seeing you! This months topic is Top AI hacks for productivity

Face to Face: Speed Networking & Profesh Headshots

Networking usually means standing in a corner clutching a drink, hoping someone talks to you. This isn't that. Face to Face is a FREE event, an evening for women to actually meet each other. We run it speed-networking style: a few short, friendly rounds so you get proper one-on-one time with everyone in the room, not just the person you arrived with. No pressure, no performing, just good conversations with women who get it. And because a good photo shouldn't cost a fortune, we have photographer Morgyn Goff who will be set up on the night taking headshots for £5. One shot is yours to keep and will be emailed to you in the following week for that amount, and you can buy more if you want or stick to what you have. Consider it the nudge you needed to finally sort out that LinkedIn photo. Thanks Morgyn for this incredible offer!! We are trying to boost women-led businesses at each event so if you have a business please come along so we can add you to our index of women champions. Spaces are limited (it's speed networking, after all), so grab yours below. Come as you are. We can't wait to meet you. At WILL (Women in Leadership & Leverage), we're building a community where women can grow their careers on their own terms, in a space of their own.

After Work Drinks - 30s, 40s & beyond - Out of Office Adventures Together!

Our very first Out of Office Adventures Together meetup! Are you in your 30s or 40s or beyond.... and want to make the most of your time outside of the office. We’re starting small for relaxed after work drinks in Canary Wharf. No organised activities, no awkward icebreakers and definitely no networking pitches. Just a small group of people in their 30s, 40s and beyond getting together for a drink, a chat and hopefully meeting some people they’d actually like to see again. This is the beginning of the OOO community, so it’s also a chance to chat about the kinds of things we’d love to do next — from London socials to hikes and day trips. **Canary Wharf — The Parlour - booked for 6.30pm** Coming alone is absolutely encouraged. Grab a drink, meet some new people and help us kick off our first adventure. Join our WhatsApp group and community for more information, events direct communication and bookings - in case the Meetup event appears full! https://chat.whatsapp.com/C9W5GZTSow72cv68CLZBdZ?s=cl&p=i&ilr=4&iam=2 Great people.
