About Us: Connecting Skilled Returners with Employers

In today’s rapidly evolving workplace, companies need both seasoned skills and fresh perspectives to stay competitive. This is why Returners—professionals re-entering the workforce after a career break—can be such valuable assets.

Back to Work Connect is transforming how employers reach Returners. A talent resourcing platform, dedicated to empowering midlife professionals to re-enter the workforce. Bridging the gap for employers seeking diverse, experienced talent while addressing the growing demand for returner-friendly recruitment. Our platform delivers measurable social and economic impact by unlocking the potential of an often-overlooked talent pool.

Our Founder

Gina Oglesby founded Back To Work Connect in 2020 to address the gap between the skills shortages facing employers and the disconnect and bias facing midlife workers, Returners and career changers returning to the workforce.

Gina brings a wealth of experience to her role as CEO and is passionate about driving innovation, leading teams, and fostering a positive work environment for all.

At Back to Work Connect, we are redefining what it means to return to work. Our mission is to bridge the gap between midlife talent and workforce demand by empowering returners—particularly women and career changers—with the tools, opportunities, and support they need to thrive. Rooted in the belief that everyone deserves a meaningful second chance at work, our platform champions inclusive hiring, supports flexible learning pathways, and strengthens economic resilience. Our Social Impact Plan is built around six UN Sustainable Development Goals, guiding our commitment to a fairer, more equitable, and future-ready workforce.
