Why iNeedWork.com

🏡Here's The Story: The Founder, Angela Thomas

"My route into tech was anything but traditional. With no set plan, no clear career map, and definitely no training organisation to guide me, I had to find a path. It was just me, my boys, my kitchen table, and an urgent need to build safety and stability.

That kitchen table became my very first training platform. All I wanted to do was keep life moving forward. Through practical, supportive learning—and a strong 'why' rooted in my faith and my family—I found my way into a successful tech career.

I applied that exact kitchen-table roadmap to my eldest son, and it worked. He went from leaving school without standard qualifications to securing fantastic roles at organisations like the BBC, Sky, Warner Music, and Arsenal Football Club. Since then, we have shared this exact method with many others to help them build lasting workplace confidence."

💼 Bridging Corporate Expertise with Lived Learning Experience

Today, iNeedWork.com blends that authentic kitchen-table learning journey with over 20 years of high-level corporate business and tech transformation expertise. Having helped FTSE 100 companies, charities, the NHS, and public sector bodies identify and recruit high-performing talent, we know exactly what modern employers look for.

Yet, our approach remains practical, personal, sometimes humorous, and always grounded in reality. We recognise that no matter how complex the job market seems, your very first step towards moving forward can start simply: with a cup of tea, biscuits, a strong ‘why’, and a supportive team who knows how to help you find your way forward.

If that sounds like you, iNeedWork.com is here to help you prepare for your next.
