Helen's Career Story

​

Helen herself is no stranger to transitioning in her career.  True to her values of helping others and making a difference, she holds a career spanning over two and a half decades that began in Human Resources.  From there she transitioned into Learning and Development (specialising in Leadership & Management Development) and later into Career Coaching. 

 

In that time she has worked for, and/or partnered with clients, from start-ups through to global corporates across multiple private, public and independent sectors including, but not limited to, local government, leisure and business travel, healthcare, financial services, engineering and manufacturing, retail, mobile telecoms, pharmaceutical, FMCG, education and energy/oil and gas. She has been a full-time permanent employee, a temp to permanent employee, a contractor, a limited company owner and now a sole trader with a portfolio career.  

 

Today, Helen's portfolio career incorporates the provision of career coaching services to professional clients wishing to utilise the services of a professional and credentialled career coach, for help with navigating a career transition to either prepare them for a job search, or consider a career change where they might be unsure of what that career change might be.​

Helen's Coaching Style

​

Helen's style is warm, calm, empathetic and encouraging but she will challenge her clients too.  She works at a human level, holding the best intentions for each client and brings sincere care and consideration for every individual client she works with, enabling them to connect to the best version of themselves and to what is truly important to them.  You could say metaphorically speaking she walks alongside them in support of helping them to explore and/or take that next step. 

 

She recognises that for some people change is unsettling and upsetting, and for others it is liberating and exciting, therefore over the last ten years she has become particularly adept at flexing her style to enable individuals to feel appropriately supported no matter how they are feeling about change or change(s) in their career.
