It was hard getting back into work after such a long time but my Workplace coach supported me all the way.

Ann Marie Doherty,
Aviation Security Supervisor
London City Airport

After 19 years bringing my girls up I thought my time at home was done. It's 'me' time now.

If you've been out of the job market for a long time, it's a shock to see how things have changed. Job applications these days are so different from 20 years ago. You have to complete an application form, go for an interview and even take tests. I was very fortunate because I was put in contact with a coach at Workplace. He was a great support, helping me with my CV and interview skills.

My job as Aviation Security Supervisor includes searching passengers and their luggage and doing security sweeps on aircraft. I love all the different characters that come through the airport. I enjoy my job immensely.

Having this job has made a huge difference to me. Of course we are better off financially but I also have much more confidence.
