About
Hello, I’m Kate.I bring over 30 years of professional experience, including almost two decades
in recruitment and more than ten years specialising in executive
and board-level CV writing.I began my career in recruitment before co-founding, building, and selling a commercial recruitment business. During that time, I reviewed thousands of senior-level CVs and saw firsthand how appointment decisions were influenced
not only by experience, but by how clearly that experience was articulated.That insight became the focus of my work.I have since produced over 300 executive biographies and professional profiles for senior leaders globally, including through a long-term contract with RSM International.My approach is forensic rather than formulaic. I draw out the judgement, decision-making authority, and commercial value often underplayed in senior careers — producing documentation that withstands scrutiny at executive and board level.What I DoI specialise in executive and board-level CV writing for senior executives, C-suite leaders, and those pursuing Non-Executive Director appointments.My work focuses on positioning leadership experience clearly and credibly so it supports appointment decisions at executive, board, and committee level.Each CV is written personally by me and is fully bespoke, evidence-based, and defensible in interview.LinkedIn profiles, executive biographies, and supporting documentation are provided where required. All documents are optimised for applicant tracking systems and executive search visibility.How I WorkEvery engagement begins with understanding what the CV needs to achieve. I review existing documentation and ask focused questions to surface the commercial problems inherited, decisions taken, outcomes delivered, and value created.Each role is structured to make judgement, capability, and transferable skills immediately visible. The emphasis is always on impact rather than role description.Drafts are refined collaboratively and delivered in Microsoft Word format, typically within five to seven working days.All work is handled directly by me and treated as confidential.Services & InvestmentExecutive CV
