I help ambitious professionals like you position your skills, experience, and potential with clarity and confidence—so you can land the role, promotion, or pivot you truly deserve. Whether you’re: ✅ Breaking into leadership as a junior professional ✅ Aiming for promotion at mid or senior level ✅ Considering a bold career shift at executive level …I’ll support you with the strategies, mindset, and tools you need to make it happen. |

Let’s face it—career moves can feel overwhelming, especially in today’s fast-paced world. Whether you’re stepping into leadership for the first time, thinking about a career change, or finding your feet again after a break, it can be hard to know where to start. That’s where I come in.
I’m all about helping you get clear on what you want, build your confidence, and create a plan that works for you. We’ll work together to highlight your strengths, figure out what’s getting in the way, and put together a personalised roadmap to get you where you want to be—whether that’s climbing the ladder, changing direction, or simply getting back in the game.
I also work with people just starting out in their careers—helping them lay a solid foundation for success right from the start.
My approach is always collaborative. First, I’ll get to know what you’re aiming for, what’s important to you, and where you might be feeling stuck. Then we’ll create a step-by-step plan that gives you practical tools and strategies to move forward with confidence.
And it’s not just about mindset—I’ll also support you with the nitty-gritty stuff: refining your CV, refreshing your LinkedIn profile, prepping for interviews, and navigating job applications. I know how tough the job market can be and how confidence can take a hit after a few knockbacks.
But you don’t have to do it on your own. I’m here to help you stand out, feel confident, and finally land the role you’ve been working towards.

Further Questions and Answers
Question 1: What do i need to do if i want to work with you?
If you’d like to work with me, please book a slot in my calendar via Calendly - Kathryn "The Career Owl" 🦉. This then books a slot for our "Right Fit" Discovery call.
QUESTION 2: WHAT IS THE RIGHT FIT DISCOVERY CALL?
The "Right Fit" Discovery call is a 30 minute meeting between you and I to determine if there is a good match between what you need and what I can help you with. During this call, we will both discuss your goals, challenges, and requirements, as well as what services are most appropriate and my approach to the work. The aim is to ensure that we both have a clear understanding of what is needed and can agree on whether moving forward together would be beneficial.
question 3: what happens after the call
After our call, I will send you two questionnaires to complete within the next five working days, along with an invoice for payment due within 48 hours; once payment is received, this constitutes our contract.
question 4: what happens after payment and the paperwork is sent to you?
Once I receive your completed paperwork and payment, our standard process typically has the work wrapped up within 10 working days.
Your final polished CV, along with a tailored cover letter, and if relevant, a detailed LinkedIn Optimisation report, will be zipping its way to your inbox.
