Professional Pathways in the UK
How Ukrainians Continue Their Careers Without Losing Their Calling
During our recent Facework Ukraine session, we brought together those who have managed to do what many find most challenging — continue their professional journey in the UK while staying true to their expertise, values, and calling.
Our guest speakers openly shared their stories of adaptation, the obstacles they faced, and the choices that helped them return to the work they love in a new country.
For some, the key was networking; for others, building visibility on LinkedIn; and for many, it required further training, qualifications, or continuous self-development.
We are deeply grateful for the experience, honesty, and strength shared by our speakers:
Anna Avramenko — Doctor, Obstetrician-Gynecologist
Yuliia Adam — Lawyer
Halyna Naidiuk — Teaching Assistant
Iryna Sachenko — Psychologist
Svitlana Yakovlieva — Marketing Specialist
Yuliia Zabrodska — Teaching Assistant
Each journey was different — yet all had something in common: confidence, persistence, and the courage to keep moving forward.
This session was a powerful reminder that: Ukrainians are not only adapting to the UK labour market — they are enriching it with their skills and professionalism.
