“After being made redundant after 15 years, I asked Brendan to rebuild my CV from scratch. He took the time to really understand my experience and the role I wanted. The new CV landed me an interview on my first application – and I got the job. His CV writing is worth every penny.”
Professional CV Writing for Mid-Career and Senior Professionals
As an experienced professional, you have more responsibilities, more stakeholders and more achievements than can fit into a simple two-page list. A strong, professional CV needs to show impact, not just activity, and it needs to do so in a way that feels credible to UK hiring managers.
My professional CV writing service is ideal if you:
- Have 3+ years’ experience and want to step up into a more senior or strategic role.
- Are moving from specialist to managerial or leadership positions.
- Are changing sector and need to reposition transferable skills and achievements.
- Haven’t updated your CV in years and don’t know where to start.
- Feel your current CV doesn’t reflect the scope or complexity of what you do.
If you are earlier in your career, you may find my graduate CV writing or no-experience CV writing options a better fit.
For senior leaders and C-suite roles, I also offer a dedicated executive CV writing service.
What Is a Professional CV Writing Service?
A professional CV writing service is a specialist service for experienced professionals who need more than a basic or entry-level CV. It focuses on presenting your track record, progression and impact in a way that matches the expectations for mid-level, senior and managerial roles.
When you work with me, I will:
- Review your existing CV (if you have one) and your target roles.
- Identify what is missing, what is unclear and what may be holding you back.
- Draw out measurable achievements, leadership examples and strategic contributions.
- Structure your CV so that your value is immediately obvious to busy hiring managers.
- Format and phrase your CV to work smoothly with Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS).
This professional CV writing service is part of my broader CV writing service, tailored specifically to experienced professionals and managers.
How My Professional CV Writing Service Works
The process is structured but personal, so you know exactly what to expect at each stage.
- Initial enquiry or free CV review.
Start by requesting a free CV review or booking an introductory call. I will assess your current CV (if you have one), listen to your goals and recommend the most suitable professional CV writing package. - In-depth professional consultation.
We schedule a structured 1-to-1 consultation to discuss your career history, responsibilities, key projects, metrics, leadership examples and target roles. This is where we uncover the detail that makes a professional CV truly stand out. - Drafting your professional CV.
I then create the first draft of your new professional CV from scratch. I focus on clarity, impact and progression: showing how you add value, not just what your job description says. Typical turnaround for the first draft is around 3–5 working days. - Review and feedback.
You review the draft and share your feedback, questions and any additional information. We discuss any changes so that the CV feels accurate, confident and authentic to you. - Revisions and final delivery.
I refine the CV based on your feedback and provide up to two rounds of revisions. Once finalised, you receive your professional CV in commonly used formats, ready for applications and recruiter outreach.

“I’d used professional CV writers before, but Brendan completely transformed my CV. He drew out my key achievements, aligned everything to my target industry and helped me understand ATS and tailoring. Within a week I was shortlisted from over 200 applicants. I can’t recommend him enough.”
What I Focus On in Professional CV Writing
Professional CVs need to show more than day-to-day duties. They need to demonstrate your judgement, responsibility and impact. In my professional CV writing service, I pay particular attention to:
– Achievements and outcomes.
Turning responsibilities into clear results: revenue, savings, improvements, efficiencies, satisfaction scores, growth, delivery against KPIs and more.
– Progression.
Showing how you have grown in responsibility, scope and complexity over time so employers can see your trajectory.
– Leadership and collaboration.
Highlighting how you lead teams, influence stakeholders, manage clients or collaborate across functions.
– Sector-specific credibility.
Using language and examples that resonate in your industry, whether that’s finance, tech, law, healthcare, education, public sector, logistics, creative industries or beyond.
– Clarity and structure.
Designing a CV that is easy to scan, with the right balance of detail and brevity for professional-level roles.
The aim of this professional CV writing service is straightforward: to help a hiring manager quickly see why you are worth interviewing for the roles you are targeting now.
