1:1 career coaching

Career coaching for consultants and corporate leaders

Promotions, pay, plateaus and politics — the unspoken rules of getting noticed, from someone who has lived them. I coach consultants and corporate professionals in London, Dubai and online, drawing on eight years as a Deloitte management consultant and a senior operator role across 70+ US and UK brands in 13 Middle East markets.

Transition labs for new CxOs

Land your first 180 days in a new executive role — priorities, stakeholders and the early wins that set the tone.

Executive influencing

Build the stakeholder strategy and presence that gets your ideas backed at the top table.

Promotion & pay

Get promoted without playing politics, and run the pay conversation on evidence rather than hope.

Your next move

For consultants and corporate professionals weighing what's next — stay, switch, or step up — with a clear plan.

Why coach with me

I've been the consultant chasing partner track and the operator owning a P&L, so I coach from experience, not theory. I know how promotion decisions actually get made, how to be visible without losing yourself, and how to navigate the politics with integrity. I'm also a Top 100 Woman in Tech and work with many women building careers in corporate and consulting.

How it works

Start with an introductory call to check fit and agree what you want to work on. From there we shape a focused set of sessions around your goal — a specific promotion, a new role, or a bigger career decision.
