I have been helping people with their careers for many years. I have had clients of all ages and at all levels of seniority. What I enjoy about my work is that everybody is unique, we all have different stories to tell. I have also learnt that no two clients have the same needs, that those career companies who offer one-size-fits-all solutions do not really understand what it is their clients need.

The Banker’s Story
Chantelle was a successful investment analyst at a leading American bank based in London. It was stressful work, she regularly felt drained and overburdened but it paid well and she had a good lifestyle.
Her bank decided that, due to the new clampdown on bonuses and the 50% higher rate of Income Tax it was going to relocate her department to Singapore. Chantelle did not want to go. Her kids were doing well at school in London, her husband had a good job and her whole life was in the UK.

The Piano Tuner’s Story
Eric had been a piano tuner. All his life. He loved the work. He had perfect pitch and he loved hearing piano strings resonating in perfect harmony with each other. He thrilled at gently tweaking a slightly off key string to bring it back to absolute perfection. This unique combination of precise hearing and delicate manual dexterity had led him to become the best known and most highly regarded piano tuner in the whole country. Other piano tuners aspired to be like him. None ever got close.
