Career Transition Coach for Senior Professionals in India

REY is a Career Transition Coach practice for senior professionals with 10 to 25 years of experience who want to move - to a bigger role, a different industry, a different function, or a different geography - without taking a step back on seniority or compensation. Led by Coach Dinesh Kumar (ICF PCC (Pathway), Ex-COO), based in Greater Noida, working with corporate leaders across India, the US, UK, UAE and Singapore.

Career transitions at the senior band are risky. Recruiters index heavily on last-role fit. Companies discount lateral moves. Comfort zones bind you longer than they should. A Career Transition Coach helps you make the move deliberately - with a repositioned narrative, targeted stakeholders, and negotiation that protects your CTC and title.

The four kinds of senior career transitions we coach

First - the internal transition. Moving from a support function into a P&L role, from an individual-contributor track into people leadership, or from a domain function into a strategic mandate inside the same company. Second - the industry transition. BFSI to Tech, Consulting to Corporate, Pharma to Manufacturing. Third - the functional transition. Operations to Strategy, Sales to General Management, Product to Business Head. Fourth - the geography transition. India to the Gulf, India to the US, or coming back to India after an international stint.

Each of these needs a different repositioning strategy. Generic career coaching treats them all the same. REY doesn't.

How the Career Transition Coaching engagement works

The engagement opens with a Career Transition Audit - a structured diagnostic of the move you want, the market that receives you, and the narrative you currently carry. From there, we rebuild your positioning around the destination role, prepare you for the recruiter and hiring-committee conversations you will actually face, and coach the negotiation so you protect senior-level CTC and title.

Every session is 1:1 with Coach Dinesh Kumar. You leave the engagement with a repositioned LinkedIn, a repositioned professional narrative, and a targeted list of stakeholders to activate.

Delivered 1:1 online and, when relevant, in-person across Noida, Greater Noida and Delhi NCR - for senior professionals in India and Indians posted in the US, UK, UAE and Singapore.

Career Transition Coach - FAQs

Is career transition realistic after 15 years of experience?+

Yes - it is realistic and common, but only when the narrative is repositioned deliberately. Without that, recruiters index on last-role fit and the market discounts you.

Will I have to take a pay cut to switch industries?+

Not with the right repositioning and negotiation. Most REY career-transition clients maintain or grow CTC, because the story they walk into interviews with matches the destination role, not the last role.

How long does a senior career transition take?+

Typically 3–6 months from the day you commit. The coaching engagement is 8–12 weeks; the market timing sits on top of that.
