Coaching for content designers
I've been a content specialist for my entire career, first for the University of London and then the Civil Service. When I started working on websites, content design as a profession didn't exist - although the work definitely did. So I learned on the job - something I've done my whole life - and learned to excel.
​
I'm now on a mission to help content designers be the best they can be. Here's how I can help you:

Bespoke coaching for content design leads​
-
Are you new to the content design lead role?
-
Are you struggling to adapt to the strategic requirements being asked of you?
-
Do you feel overwhelmed by all the new demands you're facing?​
​
Moving from content design to strategic leadership can be challenging, not least because you might have to let go of the nitty-gritty and move into big picture thinking.
​
What you may not know is that there's no one way to do it - there's your way. And you need to figure out what that looks like.
​This is where I come in. As a qualified personal coach, I work with you to identify your challenges and figure out what is really important to you. I can help you become the leader you were meant to be.

Career coaching for content designers
-
Are you thinking of taking your next move, but not sure what that is?​
-
Are you considering a move from HE to the Civil Service, but worried that you won't be good enough?
-
Have you been working for the Civil Service and now considering a move elsewhere?
​
I've worked as a content design lead for both HE and the Civil Service, and in both sectors, I was responsible for recruitment. That means I know a lot about the content design field - both as someone who's worked in it, and also as someone who has recruited to it. And I can tell you now that, if you've worked in HE as a content designer, then you already have the skills for the Civil Service
​
Whatever you're thinking of going and whatever stage you're at, I can help you.

"Speaking to Jane not only helped me to look at things from a different perspective but also forced me to take a proper look at my life goals and things that are important to me.
