Career coaching and workshops
​​​
I offer practical, personal support backed by real world experience in organisations big and small across 11 industries. And with 20+ years in senior communications roles, I’ll help you tell your story and stand out from the crowd.
I’ve coached and run career workshops for 120+ private clients and provided outplacement support to help 150+ people re-enter the workforce.
​
And if you’re choosing, changing and reinventing your career, I’ve been where you are. I’ve navigated redundancies, extracted myself from career dead-ends and reinvented my career several times. (I started my working life as an economist.)
​
The services I offer​
​
-
​​​1:1 career coaching and career development workshops to identify your career goals and opportunities and share your career story
​
-
​Outplacement and transition support for teams affected by change
​
-
Mentoring for individuals, and mentoring schemes for workplaces
​​
​
Tools and resources
​
​Choose where you want to focus. ​I offer a pick-and-mix of tools and resources to suit where you are in your career and what you’re looking for.
​
-
​Career documents and online profiles – (CVs, cover letters, LinkedIn, elevator pitches). Connect with the right people and right organisations and share what you have to offer (while sounding like a human, not AI)
​
-
Job search strategies – understand where and how to find your next role (many jobs never reach the job boards)
-
Interview practice – nail those interviews (the Kiwi way). I’ve even provided Zoom-based wardrobe advice for candidates and I'm more than happy to again!
​
-
Mentoring – set up a mentoring scheme in your workplace, or mentoring for yourself
-
Training – build skills to build your career. I offer training in business writing and workplace relationships skills (and am happy to provide bespoke training in other work-related topics too).
