Singapore · Workforce Transformation & Grant Advisory

Workforce funding that’s structured, documented, and approved.

A workforce transformation advisory built on two funding pillars: WDG(JR+) to redesign roles and build manager capability, and Career Conversion Programmes to fund salaries while your people reskill into them. We scope, structure and see both through.

Two funding pillars

05 · Programme overview

Career Conversion Programmes, simply explained.

Career Conversion Programmes (CCPs) and job redesign grants are Skills and Workforce Development Agency and SkillsFuture initiatives that help employers reskill or upskill staff, hire mid-career professionals and redesign existing jobs for digital, sustainability and business transformation.

How employers benefit

  • Receive up to 70% to 90% salary support for eligible staff on structured on-the-job training.
  • Reduce hiring and training costs when building new capabilities in digital, sustainability, tech, HR and more.
  • Tap into a broader mid-career talent pool while maintaining a sustainable payroll.
  • Align job redesign with real business needs instead of purely HR-driven initiatives.

Who is typically eligible

  • Singapore-registered companies hiring or reskilling Singapore Citizens or PRs.
  • Roles that are newly created or redesigned with at least 50% change in job content.
  • Mid-career individuals aged 21+ moving into new or significantly expanded roles.
  • Staff who are not shareholders or immediate family members of directors.
06 · Why transform now

Why redesign jobs now.

The way roles were designed a few years ago no longer matches the work. AI, rising manpower costs and a tighter, ageing workforce are reshaping what every job needs to do. Redesigning roles, then funding the reskilling, is how Singapore employers stay productive without simply adding headcount.

The forces reshaping every role

  • AI and automation. Routine tasks are being automated, so roles need to be rebuilt around judgment, exceptions and higher-value work.
  • Manpower cost and an ageing workforce. With fewer local workers and wage pressure, output per role matters more than raw headcount.
  • Sustainability and ESG. Reporting, green procurement and energy management are being written into existing jobs.
  • Skills obsolescence. The half-life of skills is shrinking, and job descriptions built years ago no longer reflect the work.

08 · Common questions

Frequently asked questions about CCP and job redesign grants.

Typical questions HR teams, business owners and hiring managers ask when first exploring CCP and related grants.

Who is eligible for the Career Conversion Programme (CCP)?

Most Singapore-registered companies hiring or reskilling Singapore Citizens or PRs into new or redesigned roles may be eligible for CCP funding. The specifics differ across programme partners and job families, so we usually start with a quick eligibility discussion based on your planned hires and existing staff.

How much salary support can my company receive?

Depending on the CCP and your SME status, employers may receive up to 70% to 90% salary support for the programme duration. We help frame the job scope, structured OJT and documentation so the application aligns clearly with programme criteria.

What types of roles are usually supported?

In practice we see a wide range, digital marketing, sustainability, HR and people roles, sales and business development, operations, tech and product, and specialised engineering. The key is a clear conversion in skills, industry or scope.

How do we get started with an application?

Most employers begin with a short call to map planned hires and internal reskilling needs against the different CCP pathways. From there, we prepare a simple action plan, documentation checklist and timeline for each potential application.
