Hi. I'm Roland Howell.
Ever feel stuck in a career that's just...meh? Yeah, me too. For years I climbed the tech ladder, building cool stuff for big clients. It looked good on paper, but something was missing. There were no real challenges, no sense of purpose. I was pushing hard, but just not feeling fulfilled.
​
That's when it hit me: I was chasing after something I didn't even truly want. And it was messing with my whole work-life balance! I knew I needed a change.
​
That's why I became a career coach. I believe everyone deserves a career that's fulfilling, challenging, and fits their life. These days, it seems like finding that perfect fit keeps getting harder. That's where I come in! I partner with people to overcome those challenges and get their careers working for them. It's not just about landing that new job, I've also worked with people who want to build a growth mindset, get a better work-life balance, develop a career plan, improve their leadership, build better work relationships and many other things.
​
Coaching is my calling, and I love helping others find their own career path. It's a privilege to be part of their journey to achieving their dreams.

Testimonials
Don't just take my word for it. Here is what some of my clients say about me:
Since having Roland as my Coach I have moved from feeling lost, in a world of delivery chaos, into a sense of greater confidence where I am more able to stand in my power. His coaching style is understated in that his energy is calm and measured however our conversations are thought provoking and powerful. One of the biggest things is how he helped me understand about the different stances of my role, and to articulate to project stakeholders what I needed from them to function effectively. This has made a world of difference as project delivery can be a continuous process of negotiation and compromise.

Roland is a very supportive coach and has helped me grow significantly in my professional career. During my time working with Roland we have tackled many subjects, including work-life balance, leadership, future career choices, building better relationships and working through workplace problems. Roland has been very skilled at helping me come to my own conclusions, whilst also providing sage advice when necessary and wanted. He has helped me to feel comfortable opening up and has allowed me to explore challenging topics. Roland has helped us build a relationship built on trust and respect, and always makes sure to put me at ease. Having dedicated time to speak about my own career in whichever way I choose has helped provide clarity on who I would like to be in the workplace and how I hope to progress. I am now able to process problems more easily, cope with stress in a healthier way and have a better work-life balance. I would highly recommend Roland as a coach to anyone looking to improve their working life in any way.
- Isobel M
Roland is a brilliant coach. He is very passionate about his role and works hard to enable others to discover the same about what they do and their future goals. His coaching sessions gave me confidence to pursue working in my new role. It also enabled me to later switch career streams and further explore opportunities. This gave me further insight in different mindset and left me wanting to learn more and apply this knowledge in practise. He created a safe space where I could openly discuss any tricky project situations as they might arise and learn how to manoeuvre those by thinking through his framework of insightful questions. Some of Roland key topics are growth and learning as well as life-work balance. Anyone who is looking to explore further on their work career would benefit having coaching sessions with Roland.
- Mirjana M
I started coaching with Roland as I wanted to develop my learning journey but didn’t really know where to begin. Roland worked with me through many topics including agile understanding, career roles, managing workload and overall professional development. His conversational style and ability to ask the right question at the right time has enabled me to draw my own insights and actions that have empowered my self-development. I feel supported, challenged, and safe all at the same time. This approach has enabled me to set myself commitments, experiment with actions and inspect and adapt accordingly to ensure I am getting the right outcomes for me. As such, with Roland’s support, my development journey has felt very natural. I would highly recommend Roland as a coach to anyone.
