A — About You

First name

Your current situation

Tell us honestly about your employment situation right now — your role, how long you've been there, and what's making you think about the future.

B — Your Situation

How close does redundancy feel right now?

Very close — consultation has started or feels weeks awayLikely in the next 6–12 months — the signals are clear, I just don't have confirmation yetPossible — I'm reading the signs and being cautiousPlanning ahead — no immediate threat, but I want a plan while I still have time to choose

Which of these patterns do you recognise most in yourself?

The Familiar Path — My instinct is to find a similar role, same sector, same level. It's what I know and it feels like the safest option.The Retraining Illusion — I've been thinking about doing a course or getting a new qualification to make myself more employable.The Waiting Game — I keep telling myself to wait and see what happens before I make any decisions.None of these — I'm genuinely open and looking for the right framework to think this through clearly.

What have you already tried or seriously considered?(optional)

Be honest — even if it hasn't worked or you haven't followed through. This helps us understand where you actually are in the process.

C — Your Skills & Options

What are you genuinely good at — at work and beyond?

Think broadly. Technical skills, management, communication, relationships, specific knowledge, things people regularly ask your advice on. Include things you do outside work too.

What options have you considered — even briefly or half-seriously?(optional)

Nothing is too vague at this stage. Include anything that has crossed your mind, even if you immediately dismissed it.

D — Your Constraints

Financial runway — how long could you realistically manage without a replacement income?

Under 3 months — I need to replace my income quickly3–6 months — I have a small buffer but not much room6–12 months — I have some real breathing space12 months or more — I have genuine time to build something properly

What's your single biggest constraint right now?(optional)

Be specific. This could be confidence, clarity, time, skills, money, geography, health, family commitments, or something else entirely.

E — Your Vision & Contact

In an ideal world — what does the next 3–5 years look like for you?

Don't filter this or tell us what you think you should want. What would you actually want your working life to look like?
