Redundancy Planning & Outplacement Services

At Coach 1st, we understand that organisational change, while necessary, represents one of the most challenging phases in a company's evolution. Drawing from our founder's extensive experience leading complex organisational transformations—including successful IPOs, international acquisitions, and operations across multiple global locations—we deliver outplacement support that balances strategic business imperatives with genuine care for people.

Our redundancy planning services combine deep business acumen with compassionate people management. We help you navigate the entire restructuring journey, from initial strategic planning through implementation and beyond, ensuring that necessary changes support long-term business objectives while minimising negative impacts on your workforce and culture.
