Career Rocket
Get The Job. Get The Promotion. Get Paid What You’re Worth.
You’re talented. You work hard. But you’re not getting the recognition—or the salary—you deserve.
Sound familiar?
Many professionals wait years for career breakthroughs that should take months. They apply for dozens of roles and hear nothing. They watch less-qualified colleagues get promoted. They accept below-market salaries because they don’t know their true value.
Career Rocket changes that. We help professionals land roles paying 25-50% more, secure promotions they were told to “wait for” and negotiate packages that reflect their actual worth.
How? Read on…
We Don’t Just Coach. Most career coaches offer general advice.
And We Don’t Just Teach. Online courses have no clear connection to your world, and can take months to complete.
We Build Your Campaign. We create a specific, tactical plan with deadlines, calls to action, and accountability. And we co-create it with you.
During onboarding, we work together to paint a picture of a future you. Typically, this is an exciting yet achievable vision, 12 months from now. We frame it as your goal.
You will receive individual coaching whilst progressing along your personal development journey. The coaching and personal development work hand-in-hand to support you. We check in to see how you are performing against your milestones, so you are never alone.
Whilst working individually, you will also be placed into a group of five fellow users. We call this your support group. You’ll always speak the same language, so there will be no communication barrier.
You support one another, share experiences, and act as a buddy network through a combination of online meet-ups and your own private message board.
We’re offering 10 free places on our February 2026 cohort, starting Sunday 1st February to those who are serious about making 2026 their year.
Why are we doing this?
Career Rocket launched in January. We have members actively working through their development journeys right now, but results take time. Rather than wait 6-12 months to share their outcomes, we’re accelerating the process by working closely with just 10 people each month.
You’ll get the full programme at no cost. In return, if you achieve your career goal, we’ll ask if we can share your story with future members.
Two cohorts of 5. Starting 1st February. March cohorts will be paid.

The Development Journey
We’ve protected our full methodology, but here’s what you need to know: significant career step changes require three critical perspectives:
You’ll discover what each means for your specific situation when you join. Then, our catalogue of bite-sized learning experiences becomes available—tailored to your goal and journey. No fluff, no generic content. Only what moves you forward, crafted by our team of continuous professional development experts.
The Coaching Model
We blend dedicated human coaching with AI-powered daily support. You’ll progress through our intelligent coaching app under the guidance of an experienced professional coach. Expect one 1-to-1 session monthly, with your coach monitoring progress and contributing unique insights throughout your journey.
The Learning Experiences
Real change happens when you do stuff, not just learn stuff.
Think of it this way: You can watch a video on fixing a leaking tap, but it won’t fix your tap unless you take action. We provide knowledge through 10-20 minute bite-sized learning experiences across life and business topics. But crucially, each comes with specific challenges —actions you’ll take to apply what you’ve learned. Completing these challenges maximises your chances of reaching your goal.
Whether you’re an individual looking to advance, a college/university preparing students for employment, or a company investing in your team’s development—if a barrier is blocking the path to success, we’ll help break through it.
Currently at college or university, preparing to launch your career with confidence and employability skills that set you apart.
Early career (typically 20-30), ready to break through the first career barrier faster than your peers.
Mid-career (typically 30-40), needing an injection of momentum to fast-track to your next level.
Established professionals (typically 40+), already in middle management but ready for that senior role you’ve earned.
Our Values & Approach
Beyond our unique blend of coaching and learning, these principles define how we work:
We meet everyone before they join—whether individuals or company teams—to ensure it’s the right fit. For organisations: we understand you’re investing in people, not just purchasing training. We want to be a genuine development partner, not just another vendor.
Most 1-to-1 coaching costs £100+ per hour. We deliver expert coaching, curated learning experiences, and peer support at a fraction of typical L&D budgets. Companies investing in employee development will find exceptional value—without compromising on quality or losing staff to competitors.
We focus on changing behaviours and building practical workplace effectiveness—the soft skills that make your team high-performers. This isn’t certified ISO training or Health & Safety modules. It’s the development that actually moves careers forward.
No gold/silver/bronze tiered memberships. No fake “act now” discounts that reset daily. Just honest, transparent pricing for genuine professional development.
Other Paths to Career Success
We don’t believe in hard-selling. Here are your alternatives:
Figure it out yourself. Many successful people do. The trade-off: it typically takes longer and you’ll miss blind spots without external perspective.
Excellent if you can find the right mentor—someone who knows you and has reached your goal. Challenges: hard to find, and their path may not suit your situation.
If your goal requires a specific qualification (PRINCE2, professional certification, etc.), pursue that. We focus on the soft skills and effectiveness training that certifications don’t cover.
We never do the hard-sell. We want our members to trust us in helping them, but only with a confidence that we’re the right partner for their needs.
Time and Financial Commitment
Meaningful career change doesn’t happen overnight. It requires consistent effort over time.
Time Commitment:
We ask for 12 months and 2-3 hours weekly. Hour-long sessions spread across different days work best. This includes coaching sessions, learning experiences, and implementing your action challenges.
