What is Outplacement?
Restructure and major workforce change are regular aspects of working life and will affect almost everyone at some point in their career. Providing your people with the right outplacement support and assistance when jobs are lost will help minimise risk and ease individuals’ transition out of the organisation.
We are different to other providers of outplacement in the market who favour centralised, batch outplacement for large groups to a rigid schedule. We’ve learned one-on-one sessions are more effective, able to be fully nuanced and drive far higher levels of satisfaction.
What else is different about what we do? Our expert Career Consultants not only provide the relevant career support but also the necessary emotional and psychological assistance that may be required during what can be a distressing time.
We are experts in psychological support and wellbeing. We bring this crucial knowledge to how we deliver outplacement services, with sensitivity and compassion, when it is needed most.
