What if flexible working wasn’t just a perk, but a pathway to inclusive growth and business success?

Toby Mildon is joined by Molly Johnson-Jones, co-founder and CEO of Flexa, to unpack the real story—and real research—behind flexible careers. From being unfairly dismissed due to a disability to launching a platform that empowers over 3 million professionals, Molly shares her inspiring journey and vision for the future of work.

We dive into the benefits of flexible working for individuals and businesses alike, including improved productivity, better hiring outcomes, and economic gains beyond major cities. But we also tackle the tough stuff—like common misconceptions, cultural barriers, and why binary thinking (remote vs. office) holds organisations back.

Key takeaways:

• Flexible working boosts engagement, retention, and access to diverse talent.
• Inclusivity isn’t just remote work—it’s creative policies that meet employee needs.
• Hybrid working requires intentional culture design and leadership trust.
• Flexibility can—and should—be tailored even in frontline or shift-based roles.

Guest Highlight: Molly Johnson-Jones, CEO of Flexa—driving transparency and inclusivity in flexible careers.
