About this session

Your mentor
After twenty years leading talent acquisition across multiple organisations and sectors, up to Global Head of TA level, I've seen both sides of the executive hiring process: I know the gap between being qualified and being hired is often just a matter of positioning.
You've built an impressive career. You have the credentials, the track record, the expertise. But when it comes to articulating your value in high-stakes interviews or positioning yourself for the next level, something gets lost in translation.
That's where I come in.
I work with directors and VPs navigating career transitions, whether targeting their next senior role, managing a move between markets, or positioning strategically for the long term. Not through generic interview tips, but by showing you exactly how hiring managers evaluate candidates at your level and what separates a "strong maybe" from an offer.
What this looks like in practice:
We start with your specific situation: the role you're targeting, the gaps in your positioning, the stories you're not telling effectively. Then we build your strategy using two proprietary frameworks: the Discover-Vision-Action (DVA) framework for career direction, and the Activity-Outcome-Impact (AOI) Method for restructuring how your CV reads to hiring panels.
This includes role-specific interview preparation, executive-level CV and LinkedIn optimisation, and where relevant, guidance on navigating UK, US, and GCC markets. I've particularly helped professionals targeting opportunities in Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 transformation economy, the UAE, and the wider Gulf, where understanding cultural nuances and strategic priorities makes the difference.
My background: twenty years in senior talent acquisition roles across multiple organisations and sectors, up to Global Head of TA level, conducting senior-level interviews across Tech, Healthcare, SaaS, Education, and Finance. Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (FCIPD).
