What is Outplacement?

Outplacement is a professional support service offered by employers to assist employees who are leaving the organisation, usually due to redundancy, restructuring or an agreed exit. It provides tailored career coaching, CV and interview preparation, and job search guidance to help individuals move confidently into their next role, protecting the employer’s reputation and retaining the engagement of the remaining staff.

Outplacement FAQs

What is the Outplacement Process?

We’ll explain everything you need to know about the outplacement process, including what it involves, how it benefits both individuals and companies facing redundancies and what to look for when you are choosing an outplacement provider.

Why we are different to other outplacement providers?

There are many reasons why we stand out from others in the outplacement marketplace and why our corporate clients describe us as “consistently brilliant”. We get to know you, your organisation and the people we’re working with so that we fully understand your needs and how best to achieve your objectives.

How much does outplacement cost?

A typical outplacement programme will cost between £200 to £5000 plus VAT with the main cost element being the career coaching component. With such variance, we’ll take a look at what the difference in price will buy you, what the different price elements are, the variants between suppliers and how to negotiate the best price. We’ll also look at the cost of not doing outplacement!

Is outplacement worth the investment?

Making staff redundancies is one of the most difficult things that an organisation has to do. There are complex legal requirements and financial calculations. Meanwhile the psychological impact is huge, not only for the employees who are losing their job, but also for their Managers, HR staff and colleagues who absorb the disappointment and sometimes anger experienced by those who are departing. It’s a challenging time at multiple levels.
