Could redundancy be the start of a new business?

For many people, the pandemic has bought a great deal of workplace uncertainty.  Many businesses have had to adapt their offering, and along with that the skills and roles of their employees, in order to achieve operational resilience. Sadly, redundancies have also played a part for many businesses needing to reshuffle to survive.

But for aspiring entrepreneurs, it has also created an opportunity to upskill, retrain and follow their dreams of owning their own business.  For years you may have wondered if the conditions are right to launch your winning idea.  Or maybe you have a little side-line business, but you haven’t yet convinced yourself you can make it work.

Yes, there is always a risk in starting a business, but believe it or not, now is a great time to dive in headfirst.

The government is working hard to get people back to work to prevent the threat of mass unemployment throughout the UK, with the Chancellor recently revealing a campaign aimed at upskilling and retraining the UK’s workforce to prepare for the jobs of the future.

If you have found yourself dealing with redundancy due to Covid-19, starting your own business might be an ideal next step.  You can invest your settlement into your business and start off in a positive position.
