Coach profiles

Jan Kirkpatrick
Jan Kirkpatrick
Chief Coach

With an early career in IT at Diageo and British Petroleum, followed by consultancy and executive search, I established the Career Partner (&Co) in 2024. Having practised as a cognitive behavioural coach in organisational executive coaching over the past five years, I recognised the need for individuals to directly access coaching to pursue their personal career goals.

As a career coach, I help people to build their self-awareness and confidence in their key skills, strengths, and career values, facilitating career direction finding, skills development for performance and wellbeing. I facilitate development of personal professional brand and profile raising for career advancement.

Using advanced coaching methods, I work with the client at the centre, within a confidential, non-judgemental space, where they can think aloud, explore, and resolve problems, create meaningful goals, and find paths to their best future.

Amanda Carpenter
Chief CV Writer, Interview Preparation Coach

With an earlier career at John Lewis, RBS and PwC,  a former professional recruiter and talent management specialist, with 20+ years’ experience in the retail and financial services sectors, I bring expert knowledge of UK and international organisations and business functions, recruitment processes and personal professional branding.

My approach to CV and LinkedIn profile writing is to first gain an in-depth understanding of experience, skills, and achievements, as well as gaining an understanding of what you  would like your CV to achieve, the direction your career is facing.

I draft a new/revised CV and LinkedIn profile, share this, and consult with my client to gather any further information needed, make revisions as needed and finalise the content, and presentation.

Careful to ensure that clients engage with their new CVs, as a certified interview coach and experienced recruiter, I also train and help people prepare for interviews.

Member of the Professional Association of Resume Writers and Career Coaches, The British Association of CV Writers, Certified professional CV writer and interview coach.
