Career Transition Coach
Our values often change throughout our lives. But our careers don't always change with them.
This can leave us stuck and unhappy in careers that don’t reflect who we are now, unsure of a path forward.
By rediscovering and working with our values, we can successfully transform our careers to work for us today.
Hi, I’m Guy, a Life and Career Coach specialising in career transition.
I help people to unlock their potential, create the career they want and achieve a better work-life balance.
I can help if you are:

feeling lost or stuck in your career
experiencing redundancy or redeployment

How I Help
I will help you uncover your core values and strengths through a series of collaborative conversations, using a range of coaching tools and techniques.
Guided by your unique values and strengths, I can help you to:
navigate a path forward
understand how your perspective can hold you back and how to change this
create a plan of action
develop your self-confidence

To create the career and work-life balance that is right for you.
Who I help
I’ve provided coaching and support for career transitions for everyone from early career professionals and recently promoted managers to established senior leaders, both in the UK and internationally.
I also coach people who want to move into a career but believe they don’t have the right knowledge, experience, or qualifications.
If you'd like to discuss how I can help you - get in touch! I offer a free 30-minute consultation call.

My Career
Before becoming a Life and Career Coach, I enjoyed a long career in academia with a focus on learning and skills development for professionals and entrepreneurs seeking to progress their careers.My varied roles in Higher Education often involved developing knowledge transfer programmes, creating partnerships between academia and industry to create personal growth plans and organisational learning strategies.I bring this broad business and academic knowledge to the practical career guidance I provide, such as support to move up in a profession or leave work and explore an entrepreneurial venture.
"Really insightful"
"Guy understood where I was coming from but also challenged my way of thinking too – this has given me a new perspective on how to address some of my concerns."
