Spend time doing work that you love

Career Coaching Matters is a UK-based career development consultancy supporting HR, L&D and senior leaders to embed leadership-owned career development that improves retention, progression and internal mobility.

I work with organisations to move career development out of HR alone and into everyday leadership practice — helping employees take ownership of their careers, managers feel confident having career conversations, and organisations retain and develop their talent.

Change the way you process, think, and react to each and every situation or task you come across.

Leadership-Owned Career Development That Improves Retention and Internal Mobility

Our Approach to Leadership-Owned Career Development

My approach to career development consultancy is practical, strategic and human.

Using my SOAR coaching method and over 15 years’ experience in HR, coaching and organisational development, I help organisations build career development approaches that are clear, inclusive and sustainable.

My work focuses on:
Helping employees understand their strengths, value and career options

Building leadership and manager capability to support career progression

Embedding career conversations into everyday leadership practice

Turning insight into clear, practical action

The result is more confident employees, more capable leaders and stronger long-term retention.

Career Development Programmes for Employees

Career development programmes are particularly effective during:
  • Organisational change
  • Restructures or redundancy risk
  • Talent retention initiatives
  • Leadership or succession planning

All programmes are tailored to organisational context and aligned with wider people and talent strategies. 

My career development programmes are designed to support mid to late-career professionals who feel stuck, undervalued or unclear about their next step.
These structured programmes help employees to:
Gain clarity on their strengths, skills and career direction
Understand their career progression options within the organisation
Build confidence and motivation
Take ownership of their career development

Team Leadership Coaching

Leadership and Manager Career Development Workshops

What It COVERS:

These workshops support organisations to move career development from HR-led to leadership-owned, embedding it into everyday management practice.  

Managers play a critical role in employee engagement, progression and retention yet many feel under-equipped to lead career conversations.

  • My leadership and manager career development workshops help managers to:
  • Hold confident, meaningful career development conversations
  • Support career progression without over-promising
  • Encourage accountability and ownership
  • Identify and develop internal talent
