I help senior women in Marketing, PR & Communications turn decades of experience into their competitive advantage.
For 20+ years, I’ve worked as both a recruiter and a hiring manager in marketing and PR. Now as an 𝗜𝗖𝗙 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵, I coach women who feel invisible despite their expertise to land roles that reflect their true worth.

👉🏾 Why my background matters to your search
I’ve sat on both sides of the hiring table. I know exactly how decisions get made behind closed doors, why experienced candidates get filtered out, and how to reposition your expertise so you become the obvious choice, not the overlooked one.
I specialise exclusively in senior-level marketing, PR, and digital careers. I understand the specific challenges you face: being labelled too “expensive” or “not tech-savvy enough,” applications disappearing into digital black holes, and navigating systems.

👉🏾 What makes working with me different
You’re not getting generic career advice. You’re getting insider recruitment knowledge from someone who understands exactly how the market works at your level.
I know how to reframe your experience as a strategic advantage in a market that’s moving faster than ever. I know what employers actually want beyond the job description. And I know how to shift the narrative in your favour.

👉🏾 The transformation my clients experience
Women I work with move from feeling overlooked to being the obvious choice for roles that genuinely excite them. They gain crystal clear direction, unshakeable confidence, and concrete strategies to position their expertise powerfully.

🎯 How we can work together
Career Clarity Session – Focused support on LinkedIn profile overhaul, CV rewrite, or interview preparation.
Land THE Job® Group Coaching – My signature 12-week program using the proven 3D Method (Dream it, Design it, Do it) to turn your experience into a competitive advantage.
Career Crossroads Clarified – Personalised 1:1 coaching where you set the agenda and we build a clear roadmap so you land the role you’ve earned.

👉🏾 Why I do this work
I walked away from a toxic leadership role where I was burnt out, overlooked, and invisible, even while working harder than ever. I know what it feels like when the industry you helped build seems designed for someone else.

That’s why I coach: to help you leave careers that deplete you and land in roles where you’re valued.
