I’ll help you present your best self, with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

Chief Operating Officer (COO)"I knew my CV needed a complete update, so I turned to LinkedIn and that’s how I found Jane. After a detailed conversation where she took the time to really understand my experience and the direction I want to take my career, I felt confident handing over the reins.Jane kept me up to date at every stage and really encouraged me to reflect meaningfully on my achievements, something I think is key, as we often don’t realise just how much we’ve accomplished until we take the time to look back.When I received the first draft, I was extremely impressed. It was sharp, professional, and really captured both my experience and ambitions. First impressions matter, especially when applying for a new role and thanks to Jane, I now have a CV I’m proud to share.We then turned our attention to my LinkedIn profile. Jane completely refreshed the content and in collaboration with a top graphic designer, transformed it into a cohesive and compelling representation of my professional brand; one I now feel truly reflects who I am and where I’m headed.I can’t recommend Jane highly enough to anyone looking to elevate their professional profile and make a strong first impression. Thank you, Jane, for your insight expertise, and for helping me articulate my value with clarity and confidence!"

Site Operations Manager"When I was made redundant, I had no idea what my next steps would be. I contacted Jane and within just two days, she had created a CV that highlighted my skills and achievements in a way I could never have done on my own.Jane didn’t stop there. She actively searched for positions that would be a good fit for me. When she came across a role with very limited details, she called me and encouraged me to apply, confident that it was a great opportunity. Thanks to her insight, I applied, secured an interview, and was offered the role I hold today, one I am very happy in.Without Jane’s support, I wouldn’t have had a CV that captured my potential so effectively, nor would I have recognised the opportunity in the role she found for me.Jane genuinely cares about people and their success. She goes above and beyond to ensure others thrive, and I’m incredibly grateful for her help and guidance.Thank you Jane!"

Operations Manager"I contacted Jane immediately when I learned that my role was potentially going to be made redundant. Having mutual acquaintances, I knew I would receive professional support and expert advice, which I definitely did. Jane produced a CV that truly showed my experience and strengths, and I am really happy with the result. If you’re looking for a top CV, created by someone who genuinely cares about your success, Jane is the person to turn to. Highly recommended!" 😊

Project/Engineering Manager"I contacted Jane when I needed to refresh my CV. Her professionalism and insight were very impressive. Jane quickly understood my experience and career goals, and put together a CV that not only highlighted my strengths, but also presented my achievements in a clear and compelling way. Her guidance was invaluable, and the final result surpassed my expectations.I’d highly recommend Jane to anyone looking for expert help in presenting their experience with impact."

Operations Director"Jane created an exceptional CV for me and the results have been outstanding. Her attention to detail in tailoring everything to highlight my strengths has made a significant impact on how I present myself to potential employers. With her expert advice, I feel more confident than ever in the direction I'm heading.What truly sets Jane apart is her genuine commitment to her clients’ success. She didn’t just focus on the technical aspects, she took the time to understand my professional objectives and the direction I want to take, ensuring every piece of my personal brand was aligned with my vision.I would highly recommend Jane if you're looking to improve your CV. I’m incredibly grateful for the time and energy Jane dedicated to helping me position myself for success, and I look forward to staying in touch as I continue on this exciting journey."

Procurement & Logistics Manager"Firstly, I can’t thank Jane enough with supporting me with rewriting my CV and supporting me with information and tips in getting my next role, and also putting me out there to potential recruiters.After being made redundant after nearly 20 years in the same business it was a scary time for myself and left me wondering what do I do now. Thankfully through a friend Jane reached out and has been a none stop support ensuring I was ready to get out there and get my new role. Jane also made me feel more confident that my next role was just round the corner, with my new structured CV and contacts she has given, and advertising me through her profile.I would recommend Jane to anyone who is/or will potentially be in my position in the future.Thanks Jane."

Project Manager/Procurement Lead"Jane is fantastic!
From start to finish the communication was easy and free flowing.
The whole process was completed in less than one week and that included a complete CV rewrite.
I cannot recommend highly enough.Amazing service and even better end result."

HR Global Executive"When I decided to update my CV recently, instead of doing it myself, I decided to get help. I turned to Jane and after a discussion about what I was looking for she got started on the job.I now have a new, well-structured and clear CV and what impressed me the most with Jane, is that she understood me, my background, skills and experience so well and all those things are now reflected in the CV, so it feels that the CV is describing me in a nutshell.I couldn’t be happier!"
