Career Transition Coach in India - For Senior Leaders Making the Move That Actually Matters

You are 12–20 years into a career. You are either being pushed by a plateau, pulled by a bigger opportunity, or preparing for a transition your organisation hasn't announced yet. And you are about to make the biggest career move of the last decade with no structured coaching support.

REY is a Career Transition Coaching practice serving senior professionals across India - Noida, Delhi NCR, Gurgaon, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Chennai and Pune - plus Indian senior leaders based in the US, UK, UAE and Singapore who are considering a return.

Led by Coach Dinesh Kumar (ICF PCC (Pathway), Ex-COO), every engagement is 1:1 and virtual-first. We work on the three transitions that senior professionals actually face: industry change, function change, and geography change - and often all three at once.

Who this Career Transition Coach India engagement is for

Senior professionals in Bengaluru / Mumbai / Hyderabad moving from a captive GCC into a product company, a consulting firm, or a founder role.
Directors and VPs across India moving from ops into strategy, from strategy into P&L, or from IC-track into people leadership.
Indian senior leaders based abroad (US, UK, UAE, Singapore) planning a return to India - and unsure how to position 10 years of overseas experience for the Indian market.

The 3-phase Career Transition arc

Phase 1 - Direction. Most senior professionals rush this phase. We slow it down. Two structured sessions to separate what you actually want from what your resume can currently justify. Direction has to be honest, or every interview will collapse into 'why are you leaving?'

Phase 2 - Positioning. We rebuild your narrative - LinkedIn, resume, referral pitch, headhunter briefing - around one crisp senior-leader story. Not a career timeline. A thesis about the next 10 years.

Phase 3 - Landing. Interview coaching, offer negotiation and first-90-days planning for the target role. Because a senior transition that lands the wrong role is worse than the plateau you left.

Why Career Transition Coaching at senior levels is different

At 12+ years in, you are not job-hunting. You are being considered. That means the entire process is invisible - headhunters, referrals, back-channel checks, board-level introductions. You will not see 80% of what is deciding your move.

Coach Dinesh has been on the hiring side of these decisions as a COO. He knows exactly what a headhunter's shortlist call sounds like when your name comes up - and how to make that call go in your favour.

Career Transition Coach India - FAQs

Do you work with senior professionals outside Delhi NCR?+

Yes - Career Transition Coaching is virtual-first and serves clients across Bengaluru, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Chennai, Pune and Kolkata, plus Indian senior leaders based abroad. Delhi NCR is our home base but not our only market.

How is this different from working with a recruiter or headhunter?+

A recruiter is paid by the hiring company. Their job is to fill a role. A Career Transition Coach is paid by you. Our job is to make sure you land the right role, not just any role. Both are useful. Neither replaces the other.

How long does a senior-level Career Transition typically take?+

8–14 weeks from starting coaching to signed offer, assuming the target market is active. Slower for niche moves (industry + function + geography change all at once) - those can take 6 months and we build for that.

Do you help with the actual interview preparation?+

Yes. Interview coaching is bundled into Phase 3 - including the CXO / board interview format, case interviews, and the senior-hire 'why you' story. It is one of the most requested parts of the engagement.

What about salary negotiation at senior levels?+

Yes - Salary Negotiation Coaching is a dedicated module inside the Career Transition arc. At senior levels, base is only 40% of the negotiation. We work on the other 60% (ESOPs, RSUs, joining, exit clauses, non-competes).

I'm considering a return to India from the US / UK / UAE. Can you help?+

Yes, absolutely. Returning Indian senior leaders are about 15% of our client base. The transition is more about positioning your international years correctly for Indian boards than about job search mechanics.
