At PH Career Services, we understand that sometimes, career success requires more than just a great CV and LinkedIn profile. For professionals who want dedicated guidance and long-term support, we’ve introduced our 1-2-1 Personal Coaching Programme with your own dedicated Personal Career Coach.
This is a bespoke, high-level service designed for executives and senior professionals in financial services who want to accelerate their careers, navigate transitions, and secure roles that align with their ambitions.
Unlike quick, one-off career coaching sessions, this programme gives you sustained access to seasoned financial services professionals with decades of industry insight. Our coaches don’t just talk theory, they’ve lived and led in the sector. That means you benefit from highly tailored, practical guidance that reflects the realities of today’s wealth management and financial planning landscape.
We offer two tiers of coaching support:
