Not necessarily! Many of our coaches offer sessions via Zoom or Teams. For in-person sessions, we have coaches based across Upminster, Romford, Hornchurch, Rainham, and throughout the London Borough of Havering and wider East London area.
We – the coach matching experts here at Career Coach Directory – have helped hundreds of people find a career coach and it’s no surprise we get so many requests when you consider how much time people spend at a job they hate – or even worse, don’t have (i.e. they’re unemployed).
So the job (pun intended) of a career coach is to help you find a job – but not just any job – a job you love. A career coach does this by offering a range of services. On one end of the spectrum is the personal development side of career coaching that helps you answer the big questions in life such “what are you passionate about?”, “What do you really want to do?” and “What career legacy do you want to leave behind?”.
On the other end of the career coaching spectrum are the technical job searching services such as CV writing, preparing for interviews, and developing job searching skills.
Career coaching is not one-size-fits-all. Depending on your needs, you might benefit from a general career coach, an executive or leadership coach, a redundancy coach, a confidence coach, an interview coach, a career transition coach, or a life coach with a strong career focus. Our directory covers all of these specialisms and our referral service will match you with the type of coach that is most relevant to your specific situation.
Career coaching rates vary depending on the coach’s experience, background, and specialisation. Most UK coaches charge between £75 and £300+ per session, with packages typically offering better value for those committing to a longer coaching journey. Our directory is completely free to use, and most coaches offer a free initial consultation so you can assess the fit before making any financial commitment.

This depends on your situation. If you are thinking about a career change in the medium term and want time to explore your options carefully, booking a few months ahead gives you space to work through the process at a comfortable pace. If you are facing a more urgent situation — such as an upcoming redundancy, a job offer you need to evaluate quickly, or an interview process already underway — a coach can often accommodate you at shorter notice. We recommend getting started as early as possible so you have the most time to benefit.
