Made Redundant and Back in a Role in 2 Weeks: The Visibility Strategy That Works

Made Redundant and Back in a Role in 2 Weeks: The Visibility Strategy That Works19 Jul31 min

Two weeks. That's how long it took Jodie Coomer to go from redundancy to landing her next role. And it wasn't luck. It was visibility.

Jodie spent 12 years climbing the ladder the traditional way. Junior business analyst. Project manager. Portfolio manager. Head of delivery. Linear. Logical. Safe. Except safe doesn't exist anymore. And Jodie knows that now.

When the redundancy conversation came, she wasn't completely surprised. But that didn't make it easier. Five days of shock. Tears. Imposter syndrome. The feeling that she'd been dumped. And then something shifted. She remembered the work she'd already done. The LinkedIn profile she'd optimised. The recruiter relationships she'd been building. The visibility strategy she'd been quietly putting in place.

Two weeks later, she was in a new role. A fixed term contract. Not permanent. And for the first time in her career, that felt like freedom.

This episode is about what happens when you stop waiting for the next rung on the ladder and start building a portfolio career instead. It's about why permanent roles aren't safe anymore. It's about the mindset shift from closed to curious. And it's about the one thing that changed everything for Jodie: visibility.

If you've been keeping your head down doing excellent work and hoping that's enough, this conversation is for you.
