 How to re-establish your career on your terms.

 Are you currently without a position, about to be ‘downsized’ in a restructuring, or trying to re-establish your career?

Whatever led to your current situation, returning to the workforce at the right level can be extremely difficult. However, at EPR, we regularly help clients not just "return" but return on their terms with excellent remuneration and in positions aligned with their values and passion.

If you’re undergoing a restructure or getting "outplaced" you will likely find these utterly inadequate at your level. Usually these programs approach transition superficially, as a selling rather than marketing exercise and won't help you explore markets or establish connections.

By undertaking the EPR Strategic Career Development process, you’ll achieve key insights, skills and support to harness the power of connections. You'll be seen as representing a desirable opportunity for an organisation's growth.

But first it is vital to understand and address three primary challenges…

  1. Hiring Executives will need to be very sure they understand the 'gap' in your CV, and will likely discount the value you bring.
  2. Being out of the workforce can negatively impact your self-confidence and employers will notice.
  3. Senior Executives usually prefer to employ those they already know and trust when they have an important position to fill.

Going through this process on your own often leads to mistakes and can make success far less likely. At EPR, we can help you address and overcome these challenges.

We work in pertnership with you to:

  • Plan a clear career restoration strategy.
  • Develop the necessary practical marketing tools and skills.
  • Execute your plan and monitor its progress.
  • Maintain appropriate levels of positive self-confidence.
  • Handle rejection and minimise its extent.
  • Identify positions that align with your interests and passion.
  • Identify and connect with individuals and organisations that represent a good fit.
