SPEAKER: I am just starting out in my career. I'm young, I'm ambitious, and I'm keen to learn as much as I can as quickly as I can.

SPEAKER: My team at work is great. We're all different ages so we all have these different perspectives and I think that's what makes it fun. I'm in my mid 20s and I love the diversity.

SPEAKER: I'm in my mid 30s. Quite a few of my fellow team members are older than me. I need the support of my workplace to help me be a more confident manager.

SPEAKER: My partner travels for work quite a lot. I'm supportive of this, but I need my workplace to be flexible with the hours that I work.

SPEAKER: I'm in my mid 40s, and I've recently experienced some major health issues. I'm still really keen to be in the workplace and I need my manager to help me create some meaningful work whilst I'm recovering.

SPEAKER: I'm looking for some new challenges and opportunities after being in the same role for a while. I've recently completed some training, and I'm really hoping that work will be able to give me some help in applying those skills.

SPEAKER: I'm in my mid 50s and I've been working for three years after being a full-time carer. I really enjoy contributing and participating in my workplace and I need my workplace to upskill me.
