Your Career Isn't a CV. It's a Story.

Connect the dots of your professional journey. I help you move beyond job titles and task lists to articulate a coherent story that demonstrates your value and your direction — clearly, and in your own words.

Start Building Your Narrative
A winding path representing professional career progression

The Disconnected Experience

  • Struggling to explain non-linear career changes or pivots without sounding defensive
  • A CV that reads as a list of tasks rather than a record of impact
  • No clear "red thread" connecting roles from different sectors or functions

The Methodical Solution

  • A powerful "About Me" that commands attention in the first 90 seconds
  • A clear strategic narrative that works for boards, investors, or hiring managers
  • Total confidence in pitching your next significant career move

When Does a Strong Narrative Matter Most?

Seeking a Promotion to Senior Leadership

When the next step is a director, VP, or C-suite role, your history must prove you are ready for strategic challenges — not just operational ones. We justify your transition not through time served, but through demonstrated readiness.

The Development Process

01
Career Archaeology

We dig into your key achievements and turning points to uncover the raw material of your story.

02
Finding the Theme

We identify the central thread — the builder, the fixer, the connector — that ties your work together.

03
Structuring the Arc

We build the narrative: the situation, the pivot, the result, and — crucially — the learning.

04
Refined Application

We fit the narrative to your LinkedIn bio, your "Tell me about yourself", and your most important meetings.

"For the first time, I could clearly explain why my transition from engineering to executive leadership made sense. The narrative we built was the difference-maker in securing my promotion."

Questions About Career Narrative Coaching

That's often the most interesting starting point. Varied experience isn't a weakness — it can demonstrate adaptability and breadth, if it's framed correctly. We find the connective tissue.
No. Career narrative work is useful at any stage. Mid-level professionals making their first move into leadership find it just as valuable as C-suite candidates preparing for board-level scrutiny.
Usually two to three sessions to build the core narrative, then one further session to refine it for specific contexts. Some clients come back to update it when they change direction.
Yes. Gaps and redundancy are common, and interviewers in the UK expect to encounter them. What matters is how you talk about the period — with honesty, brevity, and a clear forward focus. We practise exactly this.
The narrative we develop applies across all formats — the interview room, your LinkedIn summary, your elevator pitch, and written applications. It's the same story, just adapted for each context.
No. Career narrative development is a standalone service and often the natural starting point for clients who haven't interviewed in a while or who are making a significant career shift.
A CV writer formats what you give them. We start from scratch — identifying what your career actually says about you, then finding the most authentic and compelling way to communicate it out loud. The CV tends to improve as a by-product.
