Our Services

Careers With Intent offers individual career guidance for people navigating career change and progression. We also support organisations when recruiting, retaining and developing talent.

For Individuals

Our career chat will last up to an hour and will be followed up with a personalised support pack. I take a strengths-based approach focusing on positive opportunity. My aim is for you to have a clear sense of possible next steps, understand how you can make choices that work for you and help you progress into a state of readiness to move forward.  

Conversations take place online but if you are local to Buckinghamshire and would prefer to meet in person this can be arranged. I love to “walk and talk” so if you do too, just let me know.  

I offer a free initial 15-minute consultation before you commit so we can get to know each other and ensure I can support you with your goals. A one-hour career chat with personalised support pack costs £90.

For Businesses

I offer a range of practical coaching, mentoring and strategic planning packages to suit busy teams.

I am certified in The Positive Method™, with the aim of supporting organisations in building a culture which values strengths-based leadership and where team members bring their strengths to work every day.

With experience supporting individuals with additional needs, and graduates entering the labour market, I offer advice on approaches which will support people to be impactful in their role.

Having delivered successful submissions for a variety of quality standards means I understand how your approach to equality and diversity will dovetail with other organisational objectives demonstrating your commitment to your people and customers alike.

Contact me to discuss your requirements and costings (don’t forget to let me know if you are a registered charity).

With her passion for people and her way of engaging positively with the internal teams we have seen some good outcomes already. We would highly recommend her.”

Jeremy Hay, CEO, Talkback UK / September 2021

“Absolutely genuine. Delivers effectively, often working under time pressure and with limited resources, Kath is a delight to work with. She is of immense help to students and hard-pressed staff, with great concern not just about completing a task ,but doing it in a positive fashion. Beyond this she displays an ongoing desire to know what is happening in the world of work and employment and how this will impact on students.”

Vic Davies, School of Business and Law, Bucks New University / October 2019

“Kath guided me through a time in my career when I was feeling pulled in many directions, I really couldn’t see the wood from the trees and I needed to make some decisions. She very quickly enabled me to find my focus and I soon had a much clearer view. Her patient listening, reflecting, wealth of knowledge and experience guided me to realise and act on what next steps to take. Kath’s skill at facilitating people to realise their full potential is absolutely first class. Very professional, conversations were natural, effortless, safe and 100% effective. I would definitely seek Kath’s guidance again.”
