This week's Top 10 Opportunities

Issue 806, Sun 10 August, 2025
Dear Escapees,
Monday morning. Ten great opportunities below - the usual mix of possibility and 'maybe this time will be different.'
Here’s the thing we’ve learned after years of curating these lists: browsing brilliant jobs can turn into career procrastination.
You read. You bookmark. You picture yourself there. Then… you close your laptop.
The gap between seeing opportunities and actually going for them? That’s where good intentions go to waste.
Applications for our Career Change Accelerator opened last week - for those of you ready to stop scrolling and start building the clarity and confidence to actually apply.
Your ten opportunities are below. Because even while you’re building that confidence, the right role is still worth your attention.
Happy Escaping!
The Escape Team
