An Expert ApproachThe Consultants in our Outplacement team have a range of qualifications in psychometrics, coaching and counselling which can be invaluable when dealing with people facing a transition phase. Our track record includes delivering outplacement support to all levels across a diverse range of industries. 

With a strong understanding of the transferability of skills, we also offer a range of behavioural tools that help individuals understand their strengths and weaknesses.

Our ExperienceCase Study Due to an organisational restructure, 100 members of staff were being made redundant from an Oil & Gas service company. Due to the number of redundancies and the timescales involved, we proposed delivering the sessions on a group basis.

One-day workshops were developed incorporating CV development, job search strategy and interview techniques. Behavioural tools to look at strengths and weaknesses were also used. Group sizes ranged from 6-8 and included people from varying administrative and technical backgrounds.

Candidate Testimonial“Lynn has a very empathetic quality that made me feel that not only was she listening to me but that she was actually hearing what I was saying and using that information to shape the sessions. I was very impressed at how well she remembered small details that we had spoken about”.

Client Testimonial “The TUP team provided a consultative, sensitive and best practice approach. We saw considerable value in their offering, the support provided to our staff and the people being released from the company”.For more information on Outplacement please contact us to discuss:
