At The Career Business we take our inspiration from nature

Regardless of what's happening in the world nature keeps growing, adapting and moving. It's the perfect example of navigating change

We liken careers to nature. Seasonal and constantly adapting to constantly changing conditions

After a set-back and in challenging climates we need to learn how to be adaptable and resilient. In this programme we focus on building these skills and mindsets

Why Forward?

We've taken our successful career transition programme. We've listened to clients, researched the markets and continually adapted the content to take into account the impact of Covid-19.


For example we've significantly enhanced the options module recognising the demise of many industries. Clients are now having to broaden their thinking and remain curious, resilient and adaptable.


Some of our most noteworthy stories have come from people who never thought they would own a business or that they could change industry.


Through the coaching option we've guided, nudged and challenged clients to be their best and supported them if things have become incredibly tough.


We're here to make sure anyone who's lost their job has a one stop place to find their feet, whether supported by a coach or working on their own.




What our clients say

I can best summarise the coaching by answering the following questions - Did I think the coaching modules worthwhile? Yes. Am I better off because of the coaching modules? Absolutely

Director, trading firm 


The most interesting part was the networking module – I didn’t realise I knew so many helpful people

CFO, financial services


Great content, I liked the downloadable workbooks and the videos are fun

Executive Assistant


Thank you. I was very scared losing my job in this climate. I have a structure, know what to do and feel much better 

Hospitality executive


It was great to talk to you, really helpful. I've lost my way so getting back with focus and a plan feels much better

Marketing manager
