More than a career transition…
Outplacement isn’t just about helping people find their next role. It’s about how they leave your organisation—with clarity, confidence, and dignity. Our approach supports the human side of change and protects your reputation as an employer who cares.
At Chiumento, we help your people leave with:
Clarity
about their next steps.
Confidence
in their strengths and values.
Control
over their journey forward.
After redundancy, the job market felt overwhelming and confusing. Chiumento’s outplacement services gave me clear direction and a renewed sense of hope.
After 24 years with the same employer, Chiumento’s programme helped me regain my confidence and start landing interviews again.
Chiumento helped me understand why I left and gave me the tools to take control and prepare confidently for my next role.
What our outplacement clients say about us…
Chiumento has provided us outplacement support since 2016. The feedback gathered has always been extremely positive – geography has never been an issue, and the flexibility in respect of options, content and timeframes has been very well received.
Chiumento enables us to provide career coaching to our clients throughout the UK (and internationally). We have worked with Chiumento for around 8 years, and in that time, they have offered a range of benefits that meet our needs and those of our clients.
We are so pleased and grateful for the work that Chiumento have done and are doing with us. The team have helped us through 2 major business transformations and our internal re-organisation. I’ve heard nothing other than very positive reports from people with the support we’ve received.
Outplacement services we offer…
We have never believed there is a one size fits all approach when it comes to outplacement. Which is why we have four distinct offerings, providing distinctly different experiences at different price points. Making it as easy as possible to choose the right programme for your people and your business.
However, if none of these quite fit the bill, we are always happy to work with you to create your own custom outplacement programme.
