Can I change careers?


Most of us will make at least three significant career changes during our working lives

 

Deciding to make a complete career change can be risky. You may be surrendering your current job and security to try something new. What happens if you don’t succeed, or if your new career turns out to be a disappointment?

 

You may also face resistance from family and friends who are concerned that you may are making a mistake. You’ll also have to overcome obstacles in the job market including:

“You don’t have any experience.”

“Why do you think you can succeed in this?”

Why on earth do you want to change career now?”

 

Your CareerBalance consultant will help you to make an informed decision about the direction you should take and prepare you for a career change? We have helped hundreds of individuals to find more rewarding and meaningful careers. Our clients range from senior executives to recent graduates.

 

We take a cautious approach, recognising that you have invested in qualifications and built you expertise and skills to get to where you are. We are very good at identifying career options for you to explore in related areas as well as very different opportunities in other sectors.

 

Our career consultants have helped lawyers become writers and speech therapists and bankers to become teachers and journalists. We’ve supported life-long employees to become freelance, and to set up their own businesses. ?We’ll help you change what you do and how you work.
