Career Change & Transition Executive Coaching Services

What does a career transition coach do?

For many of us, there comes a point in our career when we recognise the need for a change. Maybe you don’t want to spend so much time away from the family? Perhaps you’re seeking a new professional challenge, or a better work-life balance that your current role simply won’t support? Maybe you have already made the move, but it feels a little bumpy and you are starting to question whether you have made the right decision?

Our Career Transition Coaching is designed to help you make considered, effective decisions regarding your future career and in doing so remove the barriers that can tie you to an unfulfilling, unhappy role.

We create a supportive environment that allows for clearer thinking about your next steps. With 30 years’ experience in executive recruitment, we know all about the possibilities and pitfalls of a career change, and are on hand to help you plan and secure your next move.

What are the key benefits of career change coaching?

Careers take years to build but can change in a moment. By investing in Career Transition Coaching you can go a long way towards ensuring you make the right next step, both professionally and personally, so you have no regrets in the long term.

We provide an independent sounding board outside of your usual network of friends and family. This allows us to take a step back; to understand your motivations, challenge your assumptions and ultimately support you in devising a successful career strategy that aligns with your personal and professional objectives.

Who is career change coaching best suited to? 

Career change coaching is designed to benefit individuals navigating transitions into a new role, industry, or career path. Whether you’re seeking to shift professions or pivot to a completely different field, this change coaching offers personalised support to support you during the transition.

It’s ideally suited for those who want to identify their transferable skills, align their values with their professional aspirations, and create plans for achieving long-term success in their new career direction.

What can career transition coaching help you with?

Career transition coaching provides the tools you need to effortlessly handle everything from changing businesses to taking a step up in your current role. The coaching is designed to help you gain clarity during your career shift, with coaches supporting you to identify transferable skills, set clear goals, and create a customised action plan.

Coaches provide support throughout the entire process, from job searching, refining your CV and practising interview skills to securing and settling into your new role.
