ALTERNATIVE CAREER PATHS

Complement UK is introducing an online Webinar Series designed for early-career researchers to support their professional development needs and give graduates and researchers the chance to learn about alternative career paths.
We will hear talks and discussions from a variety of researchers working in different settings, including a variety of different roles within academia, contrasting roles in an industry setting, opportunities at the clinical interface, entrepreneurship and many other possibilities!
Navigating job opportunities and transitioning to different career paths can be difficult.
