“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.”
CV Writing Services in Central London
Central London is full of opportunity, and fierce competition. Whether you’re aiming for finance roles around the City and Canary Wharf, creative and media roles in Soho, tech and scale up roles across Shoreditch and Central London, or professional services across Westminster, your CV needs to do two things quickly:
– Scan well in seconds (clear fit, strong structure, no clutter)
– Hold attention (real achievements, credibility, and a coherent story)
My approach is calm and practical: we clarify your direction, identify the strongest evidence from your work, then shape a CV that makes it easy for recruiters and hiring managers to say, “Yes: interview.”

“Brendan was very professional and attentive to my needs. The CV he produced was of a very high standard and he was always happy to make adjustments. I’ve had many compliments and positive feedback since using it. I would highly recommend his services.”
