When a senior role ends, how it ends matters.
Executive outplacement for organisations that want their departing leaders properly supported. Each executive is guided by one Executive Transition Coach, in confidence, from the day of the announcement to their next appointment.
Everyone is watching how you handle it.
A senior exit is never just about one person. The leader leaving, the team that stays and the market you hire from all form a view of your organisation from how it's handled.
The leader leaving
Real, senior-level support turns a difficult conversation into a constructive one, and makes a separation easier to agree.
The team that stays
Your remaining leaders see how colleagues are treated on the way out. It shapes their trust in you through a restructure.
Your reputation
Senior people talk, and search consultants listen. An exit handled with care protects your standing with the leaders you'll want to hire next.
Our full transition programme, not a generic outplacement package.
The same one-to-one programme senior leaders choose to pay for themselves, delivered by video by one Executive Transition Coach.
Immediate support
A confidential first conversation soon after the announcement, so the executive has a plan and a person in their corner from the start.
Strategy and market
Their value proposition and target market defined, and the search firms, recruiters and organisations that matter mapped out, with a personal transition strategy.
Positioning
Executive CV, bio, one-page networking CV and LinkedIn profile, written from scratch on one narrative, including how to talk about the departure.
Into the market
Approaching search firms before roles are advertised, interview coaching for each opportunity, and personalised application support.
Through to the offer
Final-round preparation and guidance on negotiating the offer, so their next appointment is the right one.
Simple to arrange. Discreet from start to finish.
What the executive shares stays with their coach. Any updates to you are agreed with them first.
A single contact for your HR or leadership team, whether you're supporting one executive or a whole leadership group.
Talk to us before the announcement and we'll have support in place for the day it's made.
A clear package for each leader, agreed upfront, that can be written into a separation agreement.
Delivered by video across the UK, with offices in seven markets for executives whose next move crosses a border.
One leader or a whole leadership team.
A single executive
A leadership restructure
Outplacement support is often negotiable as part of a separation package. Talk to us and we can provide a proposal to put to your employer.
For HR and leadership teams.
When should we involve you?
Ideally before the conversation with the executive, so support can be offered in the same meeting and written into the separation terms. We can also start after an announcement has been made.
Which roles is it for?
Senior leaders: CEOs, C-suite executives, directors, general managers and heads of function. For broader redundancy programmes, talk to us about the right level of support.
Will you report back to us?
Only what the executive agrees to. If you'd like confirmation that the support is being used, we can provide it with their consent.
How is it priced?
Per executive, agreed upfront. We'll recommend the right package after a confidential conversation about the roles involved.
Can the executive choose their coach?
We match each leader with the coach best suited to their level and the move they're making, and we'll change the match if it isn't right.
Planning a senior exit or restructure?
Talk to us before the announcement. We'll recommend the right support and have it ready for the day it's needed.
