Why Maturious?

How we work
We work with our clients on all aspects of mature age workforce planning and recruitment to ensure your company is well positioned to fully maximise the opportunities of the best, regardless of age.
Here are just a few ways we are going about building tomorrows workforce today.
Our philosophy is your talents are your future.
We believe the combination of curiosity and passion are the secret ingredients to enable greater workforce participation and meaningful employment for mature age people.
We also firmly believe, employers who open the door a little wider will quickly realise the benefits Maturious can provide by harnessing the diverse capabilities mature age people can bring to their workforce.
We're challenging the status quo
We aim to continually influence and change the negative perceptions and stereotypical mindsets that have contributed to ageism by demonstrating, in rational terms, the true value and business advantages mature age people can contribute to today’s workforce.
We understand the inherent value of experience and know-how
Mature age people possess strong judgement skills; in fact, psychological studies demonstrate that mature age people make more accurate decisions, as they have stronger 'crystallised intelligence', or accumulated experience.
Mature age people bring a lifetime of experience, networks and knowledge. They have gone through all the ups and downs of several decades of working life and can be pillars of support for your employees, whether it’s helping on soft skills like negotiation or communication, or the nitty-gritty sector-specific know-how.
We're building a new narrative
We believe a key pillar in building a productive workforce stems from the diverse capabilities a mature age people have acquired from a broad range of industries and roles.
Beyond diverse capabilities, mature age people also possess the Holy Grail that are ‘meta-competences’ – communication and organisational skills, punctuality, dependability and confidence. All those things that turn a colleague from an unreliable nightmare to dream employee
