Most of what is sold as executive resume writing in Australia is one of three things: a template filled in offshore, software that rearranges what you already wrote, or a junior writer working from a questionnaire. All three produce a document that reads like every other document in the pile.
We are a small Australian team of senior writers and coaches. Every engagement is one to one, every document is built from an interview, and you always know the name of the person doing your work.
Below is what that actually buys you — and, at the end, an honest note about when you do not need us at all.
Not adjectives. Things you can check before you pay anyone anything.
You are told who is writing your documents before you commit, and you speak to them directly. No account manager relaying notes to someone you never meet, and no work sent offshore. Ask any provider this question and see how quickly you get a name.
Executive roles are filled through two channels: advertised positions guarded by applicant tracking software, and unadvertised roles that move through search firms and networks. Those channels reward different documents. Every Executive Success Package includes a version engineered for each.
Strategic, dynamic and results-driven appear on almost every senior resume in the country, which is precisely why they carry no weight. We interview you until we have the numbers, the scope and the before-and-after — because that is what a board or a search consultant is reading for.
Some people arrive with a document that is already working and a targeting problem instead. Our free review says so plainly when that is the case. We would rather lose the sale than take money for work that will not change the outcome.
Our clients’ documents have gone before search and recruitment firms including Korn Ferry, Heidrick & Struggles, Derwent Executive, Fisher Leadership, Hays, Randstad, Hudson, Chandler Macleod and Manpower.
Our clients lead teams at organisations including Goldman Sachs, McKinsey, BHP and the Commonwealth Bank — across ASX-listed companies, professional services, government, health, education and not-for-profits.
A senior writer scores your current resume against the ten criteria that decide executive shortlists. No obligation, and no software.
You will receive a personal scorecard by email within three business days, telling you plainly what is working, what is not, and whether the document is the real problem. We cap reviews at fifteen a week so each one gets proper attention.
Fifteen minutes with our senior team. We’ll tell you which package fits — and whether you need one at all.
