The program

Working with you until conclusion.

That is the hallmark. Not a portal. Not a package that expires. A one-to-one program for mid-to-senior executives navigating a senior executive exit — or who are funding their own transition.

Materials done properly. Introductions to the right search firms. The unadvertised market. Private introductions to chairs, non-executive directors, C-suite executives. A career or board portfolio as a legitimate outcome, not only a single next job.

You are protecting remaining-staff morale and the employer brand, and giving the departing leader specialist support until conclusion. Book a conversation first, or enquire and we will start in the notification week.

How the work is done

Calibrated to mid-to-senior executives.

The program is for people operating at executive director and C-suite level, and for senior managers and professionals navigating redundancy, restructure, or a planned move. It is not tailored to large-scale job redundancy.

Kylie Hammond delivers it herself. She is an executive search practitioner, career coach and mentor. The work is commercially focused: the right brand, the right rooms, and someone activating networks beside you so you do not lose momentum.

You have to get back into employment at senior level within six to twelve months — ideally within six months. That is the pace. Outcomes still depend on the market, the role, and your participation.

A recent transition

First time to market. Kept current. Then a substantial role.

Following a corporate restructure, a very senior healthcare executive left — operating at executive director and C-suite level. A stellar individual, more than fifteen years with that organisation, coming out to market for the first time. Challenging, because you have not been for job interviews, you do not have relationships with headhunters, and you have not changed jobs that often.

Materials were put together the right way — résumés, cover letters, LinkedIn — and introductions were made to the right search firms. The individual went through a number of recruitment processes and was pipped at the post at the last minute, often while trying a slight industry change.

One of the first things we did was help secure an advisory board role. That kept the CV fresh and current, and gave a talking point: what are you doing now? Persistent effort, with someone activating networks beside them, then secured a substantial new job offer.

That is the benefit of working with someone by your side until conclusion. It keeps you motivated to keep going.
