​
Have you ever thought about what your passions truly are and how you can incorporate these into a fulfilling and exciting career? Perhaps you have reflected and realised that your career to date has fulfilled the wishes of others, but neglected your core aspirations that would allow you to be a more authentic version of yourself? Perhaps you want to rediscover your passions and the innovative roles that could enable you to thrive? Maybe you have taken a career break and and are passionate about returning to work and finding a new and exciting purpose, just for you.​
At The Cotswold Career Concierge, I use a proven and highly successful collection of products and services that have been designed exclusively by myself for my clients. Used in conjunction with a methodical 8-Step Consultancy Program, I have successfully helped a wealth of talented professionals to re-discover their passions and build fulfilling and exciting careers that have allowed them to excel in life. From working with highly ambitious 16+ year olds preparing for the first stages of their career, experienced professionals seeking aspiring career change or growth opportunities through to entrepreneurs and COO's looking for their next exciting challenge, nothing is off limits as I support you in reaching your fullest potential!
So, whether it be part-time, full-time, a new business venture, voluntary or charity-based work - I am here to empower and support you in discovering how your passions can be incorporated into a fulfilling career that allows you to be the best, most authentic version of yourself.
The 8-Step Consultancy Program consists of 4 stages; Discovery, Investigation, Career Roadmap, Growth

DISCOVERY
What motivates me? What do I find satisfying? What are my core values and strengths? How can I prioritise my wellbeing at work whilst I discover my full potential? Which work tasks will allow me to unlock my full potential? How can I find my purpose?
​
Using my proven methodologies and in conjunction with assessment methods based on Myers-Briggs Theory, I will help you to understand your interests and talents, strengths and core values, identify a shortlist of career opportunities based on your personality type, values and evaluate this information with you in conjunction with today's employment marketplace to ensure that you can identify the roles that will allow you to reach your full potential. This is all presented to you within our Tailored Career Report©.
​
INVESTIGATION
Which shortlisted job fits my current lifestyle and aspirations for the future? What does this role involve and how can I get the skills required to do this job? How can I be sure this is the right opportunity for me? How do I change careers? How do I start my own business?
So many questions and by far the most exciting part of your career journey! Using the information gathered throughout 'Discovery' and the shortlist of careers that will maximise your natural talents, my program will help you to develop a sound understanding of your career options and whether these opportunities will meet your aspirations for the future. I also help you to determine how best to move forward towards achieving your career preferences.
CAREER ROADMAP
I know what I want to do! But how do I get there? Is this career achievable? Where do I start?
My Career Roadmap© is a working document exclusively designed and created in-house. Working together, your bespoke career roadmap will help you understand the career you are aspiring to, the job family, the specifics of the job and person requirements and the growth required to attain this opportunity. Most importantly, I guide you towards the knowledge you require to set your own objectives to move forward and attain the desired job. I also support my clients at this stage with new business development and business planning, should creating a new business be the future aspiration.
​
Alternatively, why not take advantage of my experience and highly desirable networks by requesting the Tailored Job Search Service©. Carried out by me directly this is the highest level of service provided, with discretion and speed at the forefront. Undertaken on your behalf, I carry out an extremely thorough and bespoke job search, providing you with an exclusive shortlist of exciting, live opportunities (to include roles both on and off market) that meet your passions, skills and aspirations for the future. What's more, every employer will have been contacted directly to ensure the status of each role is verified and that you and your USP's are introduced to perspective employers to ensure the door to these opportunities is open and waiting for you.
GROWTH (AND NEW BUSINESS)
Am I ready to return to work? I want to try something new and exciting but I'm not sure whether there are opportunities available for me in this sector? I want a total career change, how can I do this whilst continuing in my current job? How can I prepare for promotion or ensure career growth? What's the best way to return to work after burnout? What is my career exit strategy?
Life throws many surprises at us (good and bad), and while we cannot predict the outcome of any situation, we can take control of how we respond. Whether it be preparation for redundancy, coaching for promotion, improving confidence or preparing your career exit strategy, I can help you every step of the way.
​
Of course, you may now be ready to take a leap of faith and embrace the entrepreneur within you! Working alone to start a business and navigate even the initial stages can be incredibly isolating and overwhelming. So working together, in a highly confidential environment, I will mentor and support you through each of the stages you need to make things happen. Whether it be business concept, viability and consumer need and research through to business planning, investment strategies and exciting business launches, I have the expertise and networks to help you work towards your exciting business aspirations.
