Coaching for External Career Moves

External career moves are rarely just about finding vacancies. For mid-career and senior professionals, the real challenge is usually positioning.
You may have strong experience, but the market may not immediately understand what you do, where you fit, or why you are relevant for the roles you want next. Your CV may describe your past accurately without making a persuasive case for your future. Your LinkedIn profile may be technically
complete but strategically weak. Your networking may be too passive, too narrow or too uncomfortable to use well.
I help professionals turn career direction into a focused, credible and active job-search strategy.

This coaching may be useful if you are actively exploring the external market or preparing to do so.

It may also be useful if you have already started searching but are not getting the quality of response you expected. In that case, we look carefully at whether the issue is targeting, positioning, market access, interview performance, confidence, timing or search discipline.

Clients often come to this work when they are asking questions such as:

• “I know I need to move, but I do not know how to position myself.”
• “My CV does not seem to be getting the right attention.”
• “I am applying for roles but not getting enough traction.”
• “I am getting interviews but not converting them into offers.”
• “I do not know how to network without feeling awkward.”
• “I want to move sector, function, geography or level.”
• “I am recovering from redundancy, retrenchment or a difficult exit.”
• “I need to explain my story in a more confident and credible way.”
  

A job search is not only an administrative process. It is acommunication and market-access process.
