About me?
Hello, I’m Ben and Compete Career Coaching was born after 15 years in Recruitment & HR. Over this time I’ve gained a broad range of valuable knowledge, having worked within Tech, Professional Services, Healthcare and Construction. I’ve worked with Apprentices through to C-Suite, and can assist with your planning no matter what stage you are in your career.
From personal experience, navigating the job market can be daunting, whether you're actively searching, or contemplating the next move. It’s competitive, and often we’re competing with our own internal dialogue. This can result in increased anxiety, a lack of focus, clarity or self-belief, and requires the need to push ourselves outside our comfort zone.
I take pride in adopting a holistic approach to coaching, drawing upon not only my HR and Recruitment experience, but also the career challenges I’ve faced, to give meaningful insights.
I want you to reach your full potential with the clarity and confidence you deserve.
