Our People

Careering into Motherhood began as a Facebook community.
In 2023 we launched our coaching partnership to be able to give more women access to coaching expertise. We are a female-owned business, and we exist commercially thanks to the support of our Partner Coaches and our Corporate Partners.

Jane Johnson

Jane is the founder of Careering into Motherhood. She spent 20 years in the City advising senior leaders on marketing & communications strategy, she was the first person to negotiate her Director role as a job-share, for one of the world’s largest banks where she experienced first-hand how a parental leave experience can make or break women’s careers.

The idea for Careering into Motherhood was born out of frustration after seeing how hard it is for women to continue their careers after children. She leads the community of over 20,000 women, and a cohort of over 50 Professional Coaches, she consults and advises our corporate partners, and is the host of our award-winning podcast.

Our cohort of more than 40 Professional Coaches are an integral part of who we are and what we do. We work with them all and trust them to support our community members in the right way, upholding the Code of Ethics of their respective coaching accreditation bodies. If you’re thinking of working with one of our Coaches, you can browse their profiles via the Our Partner Coaches tab, and if you’re an employer looking to support working parents at your organisation please get in touch. Our innovative eCoaching and 1:1 programmes mean we can make your budgets go further while having a directly positive impact on people.
