About

Hi there, I’m Dr Elaine, Career Energiser and lifelong learning champion.   Thank you for reading this a-bit-about-me page.  Don’t worry I’m not going to take you on a rambling ego trip.  Who’s got time for that!

Whatever your situation or experience, combining vision, creative thinking with positive action is what will bring you results and rewards personally and professionally.

And that’s where I come in.

I help you take your career into new territory and write the next successful chapter of your professional story. I help you re-imagine your career, make purposeful choices and achieve career success in a world of change.

My aim?

To help doctoral talent around the world achieve career success in an ever-changing career landscape.

Our signature career development system is called The Innovate Approach. It is designed to help you confidently and continually evolve your career. Building and maintaining your value and agility.

As well as the one-to-one coaching work and various masterclasses, we’re excited (that’s my husband Martin and I ) to have launched Re-energising Your Career.

The Hub gives you access to help and input from me plus over 150 exclusive career development resources in a safe, upbeat, fully facilitated online space. All available on-the-go on web and mobile. Epic!

So how do I know so much about career development, transitions and pivoting?

As well as helping others, I’ve done it successfully myself several times throughout my career adventure so far.

I’m no stranger to re-evaluating and re-inventing myself and business, and then turning those re-freshed, re-energising aspirations into reality. As this snapshot of my career adventure shows…

From boilersuit to boardroom and beyond:  After completing my PhD in Chemistry, my adventure began in manufacturing where I worked as an industrial chemist.  Having been bitten by the business bug I purposefully pivoted into commercial and business roles; ultimately reaching executive level. 

To earn my business and leadership spurs, moving industry several times along the way, I led a multi-disciplinary technical team, ran a body armour business, worked in front-line sales and turned a loss-making division to profit.

After climbing the corporate ladder for a while and getting closer to my goal of become a Managing Director, I made a life-changing career decision.

I left my board-level role and set off on my own entrepreneurial path. Via jewellery [I wouldn’t have expected that either 😉], business mentoring and talent development, I found my true purpose; inspiring and supporting doctoral talent from around the world on their varied and evolving career adventures.

Here I am talking with George Grombacher about life and career on his LifeBlood podcast…

Finally, I am grateful to have had time to get involved with volunteering over the years. And I recently become part of the volunteer team at the Festival Drayton Centre in my new home town.

Past highlights include being an Enterprise Adviser for NESCOT College as part of the Coast to Capital LEP’s Career Hub; acting as a Governor of Prior’s Field School; contributing as an Advisory Board member for Going For Independence CIC; being involved with Young Enterprise in South East England.


I’m always happy to discuss your career. If you have questions or want to find out more, drop me a line and let’s get the conversation started today.
