Realigning a career isn't just about finding a new job title; it's about reconnecting with what matters to you and building a plan to move towards it.\n\nRedundancy coaching is for individuals who have recently been told that they're facing redundancy. This is usually funded by businesses, and offered as a support for people that they have had to let go. We cover things like the emotional impact, confidence, what next, job prospects and the future.\n\nMy coaching helps clients identify their core values, strengths and passions, explore career possibilities that fit those, and work through the self-doubt that often gets in the way. From there we build a clear, practical plan and develop the tools needed to manage transitions, applications and interviews.\n\nAlongside coaching, I offer support with the practical side of a job search: writing CVs that get you to interview, putting together standout applications, and preparing to do well once you're in the interview room. I also support employers with performance and redundancy situations.\n\nI've been working as a careers coach since 2015 and have helped over a hundred clients move forward with more clarity and confidence about where they're heading.","specialism":"Career coaching, redundancy coaching and CV writing","categories":[{"slug":"coaching-mentoring","name":"Coaching & Mentoring","primary":true,"offers":["coaching"],"distinguishes_training_and_coaching":false,"sub_categories":[{"slug":"career-coaching","name":"Career coaching"},{"slug":"life-coaching","name":"Life coaching"},{"slug":"business-coaching","name":"Business coaching"},{"slug":"assertiveness-coaching","name":"Assertiveness coaching"},{"slug":"coaching-skills-managers","name":"Coaching skills for managers"}]},{"slug":"hr-people","name":"HR & People","primary":false,"offers":["coaching"],"distinguishes_training_and_coaching":true,"sub_categories":[{"slug":"career-development","name":"Career development"}]},{"slug":"communication-and-personal-effectiveness","name":"Communication & Personal Effectiveness","primary":false,"offers":["coaching"],"distinguishes_training_and_coaching":true,"sub_categories":[{"slug":"communication-and-interpersonal-skills","name":"Communication and interpersonal skills"}]},{"slug":"wellbeing-mental-health","name":"Wellbeing & Mental Health","primary":false,"offers":["coaching"],"distinguishes_training_and_coaching":true,"sub_categories":[{"slug":"mental-health-awareness","name":"Mental health awareness"},{"slug":"resilience-stress-management","name":"Resilience and stress management"},{"slug":"burnout-prevention","name":"Burnout prevention"},{"slug":"suicide-prevention","name":"Suicide prevention"}]}],"based_in":{"town":"Ashford","county":"Kent","region":"South East","country":"United Kingdom"},"coverage":{"nationwide":true,"regions":[],"towns":[]},"formats":["Onsite","Online","Bespoke","In-person"],"funding":["Subsidised"],"accreditations":[],"pricing":"Get in touch for a quote","courses":[{"title":"Career Coaching","description":"Career Coaching for Professionals Seeking Direction and Meaningful Work\nFeeling stuck, unfulfilled or experiencing career burnout is more common than many people realise. Whether you're at a career crossroads, questioning your current path, or simply seeking more meaningful work, career realignment is a transformative and often exploratory process. It begins with having faith in yourself and what you have to offer, and it develops through reflection, clarity and thoughtful action.\n\nMy career counselling provides a calm and professional space where you can explore your deeper motivations, reconnect with your strengths and create a clear and aligned plan for your next steps.","formats":["Onsite","Online"]},{"title":"CVs That Open Doors","description":"Professional CV Writing — Michael Laws\nYour CV is more than a document. It’s your professional positioning statement and often your first opportunity to influence a hiring decision.\n\nA professionally written CV communicates your value clearly, highlights measurable achievements, and positions you as the right candidate for the roles you want. In a competitive job market, that clarity can make the difference between being shortlisted and being overlooked.","formats":["Onsite","Online"]},{"title":"Performance Coaching for SMEs","description":"Expert People Management Support for Business Owners and Leaders\nSupporting underperforming employees and managing redundancy situations are two of the most challenging responsibilities business owners and leaders face. Done well, both protect performance, culture, and reputation — whilst ensuring people move forward with confidence and clarity.\n\nI work with SMEs across the UK to improve employee performance through targeted coaching and to provide professional redundancy support once decisions have been made.

Poorly managed exits damage trust, morale, and your employer reputation. Handled well, they reflect your values as a business, even in difficult circumstances.\n\nI provide personalised, employer-sponsored redundancy coaching and outplacement support for employees affected by redundancy or organisational change. Each programme covers emotional resilience, career direction, professional CV writing, interview preparation, and job search strategy — all delivered through direct, one-to-one coaching tailored entirely to the individual.\n\nFor employers, this protects your brand, reassures remaining staff, and significantly reduces the risk of grievances or employment tribunal claims.","formats":["Onsite","Online"]}],"website":"https://realign-your-career.co.uk/","socials":{"linkedin":"https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-laws-careeralignmentcoach/","facebook":"https://www.facebook.com/RealignYourCareer"},"video":null,"logo":"https://leahwxgrfrpnxzgyivxa.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/listing-images/logo-bdb813be-1ab8-49f9-bd1c-7706b26d9677-1789482423986.webp","contact":"The trainer's email and phone are on their listing page, linked in this record, and buyers contact them directly.
