Working Longer, Living Bigger: Building Career Options for the Long Run

As life expectancy continues to rise, it is increasingly likely that many professionals currently in their 50s and 60s will live well into their 90s and beyond. What might we do with these additional decades, and is the traditional concept of retirement still fit for purpose?

Join us for this breakfast event as we explore how longer lives are reshaping careers, work, and retirement. We will hear opening perspectives from two leaders in the professional services sector, Victoria Tomlinson and Alex McPherson, who will share their insights on creating fulfilling, purposeful, and financially sustainable later-stage careers. Their contributions will be followed by an interactive discussion with attendees.

This session will be particularly relevant for C-suite leaders, including CEOs, CFOs, COOs, Chief People Officers, senior executives, and partners. Together, we will share experiences of supporting colleagues as they navigate longer working lives, reflect on the realities and challenges of an ageing workforce, and explore what the retirement and career models of the future might look like.

Please note: copies of Victoria’s latest book, Expiry Date Never: Age is the new Superpower, which makes the business case that firms who invest in experience – rather than retire it – win, are available through Pearson.

Hope you can join your peers
