After working in organisation development and career consulting with Coopers & Lybrand, KPMG and Penna, I set up Raeburn Career Coaching.In 2023, I decided to take my own advice in trying a new direction so trained as a Humanist Celebrant with Humanist Society Scotland. I conduct conduct weddings, civil partnerships, vow renewals, naming and welcoming ceremonies and funerals. I am absolutely loving this role, getting to know couples and families to help them plan the ceremony they want at a pivotal moment in their lives. The best words they can say after the ceremony is “that was just right”! You can see my profile on the Humanist Society Scotland website: portal.humanism.scot/celebrant-profile/heather-mcarthur/I combine this role with Raeburn Career Coaching, providing career planning and job search coaching to people at all ages and stages in their career. They may be looking for a new job, or want to change their career direction, or be starting out. Clients range from board directors to mid careerists or recent graduates. Using a mix of discussions, exercises, questionnaires and psychometric testing I guide the individual through the process of taking a thorough and objective look at themselves, what they would be best suited to do in their future career and what actions they need to take to achieve this. I help them to present themselves persuasively to give them the best chance of getting the working life they want, be it a full-time job, a portfolio of activities or setting up their own business. I meet clients face-to-face or by Zoom if that is easier due to location or working hours. I also provide a service to organisations, working with senior managers to develop their career or giving outplacement support if their job has been made redundant.I am a member of the Chartered Institute of Personnel Management.
