Ready for Your Next Career Move? Don't Let the Market Decide Your Future!
Whether you've been made redundant, fear redundancy, feel trapped in a job you no longer enjoy, or have realised your career has taken you somewhere you never wanted to be...
...you don't have to leave your future to chance.
Strategic Career Mastery Live is a premium ongoing series, with each live building on the last
Designed for experienced professionals who know something has to change and are ready to take control of what comes next.
Are you in control of your career — or is it simply drifting?
Career Control doesn’t happen by accident.
You need to know where you’re going and why. You need clarity about who you are, what you offer and who needs it. And you need the mindset to move towards what you want rather than remaining stuck in where you are today.
In this session, we’ll explore what you actually need to take control of your career — direction, purpose, professional clarity, the right mindset, an understanding of your market and the ability to access it.
Because without those things, you’re not really controlling your career.
You’re simply reacting to whatever happens next.
I’m James Foster, founder of Careers Matter.
Strategic Career Mastery is built on over 20 years of seeing how careers actually work — from inside the system, not from the outside looking in.
If you rely on the traditional career model, you’re limited by what’s visible, what’s available, and what someone else is prepared to offer you. That system was never designed to give you control.
SCM Live exists to help you step outside that model — to act deliberately, position what you do as valuable, and create opportunities rather than wait for them.
I can teach this because I’ve spent two decades working inside recruitment and career systems — hiring, advising, building teams, and seeing how decisions are really made.
SCM Live is where I share that perspective so you can take control of your own career direction.
“James brings clarity and direction that genuinely accelerate your career. His strategic advice and deep industry understanding helped me secure my senior leadership role with confidence. James doesn’t just help you land a job — he elevates your entire career journey.”
