Professional CV Writing Service

Whatever your next career aim, you will have an initial consultation in person or via video / telephone. We’ll get to know you and your way of thinking and will discuss:

  • Skills and strengths, career history, qualifications and achievements
  • Your career aims and the role you would like next
  • How best to ‘brand’ you for the market you intend to work in
  • Help to define your job search strategies and provide tips and advice (if required)

Your CV will then be written and provided in draft via email. Together we’ll review it and fine-tune it until you have complete confidence in your new CV. Your final document is provided in Word and as a PDF file ready for you to send to potential employers.

Julie’s experience and personal attention ensures your CV, either built from scratch or re-written, will help you stand out from the crowd and deliver a really polished CV produced to the highest possible standards.
