Strategic Personal & Career Branding Services for Those Who Want to Be Seen, Heard, and Hired

Any of This Sound Familiar?

You know you’re good at what you do. You’ve put in the work, built experience, and added value.

But something’s holding you back:

  • You feel stuck in your role and want to move forward
  • Your CV no longer reflects your skills or ambitions
  • Job applications disappear into a black hole
  • You don’t have time to update your career branding
  • You feel ready for more but unsure where to begin
  • You want clarity and a clear plan for your next move

Your Job Search Shouldn't Be This Challenging

It takes on average 4-6 months to find a new job
Time to hire is increasing
People spend 46 months of their career applying for new jobs

You don’t need to figure this out on your own!

I am Here to Help

I bring a business strategy mindset to career development.
Together, we’ll create a career brand that works for you and speaks clearly to your next employer.

1. Set Clear Goals

We define what you want from your career and where you want to go next.

2. Understand the Market

We carry out a personal SWOT analysis to assess your position and identify new opportunities.

3. Upgrade Your Career Branding

We create a CV, LinkedIn profile, and cover letters that tell your story and showcase your value.

4. Build a Smarter Job Search Strategy

We develop a practical approach that helps you find the right roles.

5. Prepare for Promotion and Interviews

We refine how you talk about your experience so you can show up with confidence.

6. Negotiate Job Offers

We negotiate job offers that reflect your market value and ways of working.

Meet Your Career Optimiser

I’m Dave Crumby. I believe good people can achieve great things when they have the right support.

Over the past decade, I’ve helped companies grow across the UK, Europe, and North America. But it was working with jobseekers in Sheffield that changed my focus.
I saw how many talented people were being overlooked because their CVs didn’t reflect their value.

That experience drove me to build a better way. Today, I work closely with professionals who want more from their careers.
Together, we make sure your career branding opens doors and reflects where you’re heading, not just where you’ve been.
