Being in the right role is the first condition for wellbeing and lasting performance. At a senior level, the stakes are higher and stepping away from a role that has defined you carries real emotional weight.
My mission is to help you gain the clarity and confidence to move forward and land the role that reflects your experience and ambition, moving from:
- Uncertainty and doubt → Self-awareness and clarity:
Understanding who you are, what you bring and what you want - Unfocused search → Targeted strategy:
Identifying and pursuing the right opportunities - Self-doubt & stress → Confidence & resilience:
Managing the journey’s emotional highs and lows and your mindset
I also work with graduates and young adults helping them navigate a competitive first job market.
“Sophie helped me land a promotion into a new role in a highly competitive industry. Her approach was practical, action-driven, as well as focused on mindset, confidence, and resilience. I’ve recommended her to others, all of whom were equally impressed.” Executive Director – Financial services

Mapping the roles that align with your current skills and experience for a natural next step as well as those beyond your immediate scope for a career change. - Make your network work for you:
Using your relationships strategically to gather valuable market intelligence, access the hidden job market and open doors. - Get noticed and get interviews:

Preparing thoroughly for your interviews to perform at your best when it matters most. - Stay resilient throughout:

Why me?
- It Starts With You:
Having personally navigated redundancy and a career transition, I understand the uncertainty, the self-doubt and the emotional weight of stepping away from a role that has defined you. I know what makes a difference. - Real-World Business Experience:
With over 20 years in senior corporate role and 15 years as a coach, I know what organisations look for at a senior level and understand how to position you for success. - Science-Driven Methodology: Understand → Rewire → Perform:
A career transition is as much an inner challenge as an outer one. With neuroscience, emotional intelligence, cognitive behavioural therapy and coaching, I help you understand your strengths and shift the beliefs, patterns and habits that may be holding you back. - My Style: Caring Yet Challenging:
A confidential space that is supportive and stretching in equal measure, where I encourage reflection and hold you accountable.
As a bilingual, binational professional with international experience, I bring a perspective that challenges assumptions. - Collaboration:
I work with leading French institutions including L’École Polytechnique and HEC, and draw on L’AVARAP (the French gold standard in senior career transition facilitation) bringing a strong co-development methodology.
