Have you ever found yourself daydreaming about a job that lets you work in your own way, at your own pace? Well, today, we're introducing you to Beth Carter, the Head of Growth at Flexa, a company that's revolutionizing the job market by giving verified businesses a platform to showcase just how the flexible ways of working they can offer potential employees. Beth opens up about her intriguing childhood aspiration of being a "dog historian" and her voyage from a stifling finance job to the dynamic world of start-ups. She also shares some pearls of wisdom about the shifting expectations of job seekers and the critical importance of flexible work environments in promoting diversity and transforming business practices.

We take some time to explore the early stages of Beth's career before looking at what it's like to be a growth coach in a start-up versus a corporate setting and the unique aspects of both. Beth also gives us a sneak peek into the evolution of the startup landscape, especially in the post-pandemic era.

During our conversation Beth also sheds light on the concept of the Flex score, a unique system designed by Flexa to assess just how flexible the businesses looking to promote themselves on their platform really are.  Beth explains the role of employee surveys and the need for role-modeling and autonomy in flexible work cultures and we wrap up the conversation by taking a look at the future of work, discussing the evolving role of HR, the rise of passive job searching, and the importance of establishing healthy boundaries in a flexible work environment. So, settle in and get ready for an enlightening conversation on the future of work and how companies like Flexa are shaping it.
