Meet
Jane Ferre
Jane offers private career coaching for senior professionals who’ve outgrown their current roles and want to secure their dream role in their dream company with a dream package in less than 6 months. She came to this after experiencing redundancy not once but twice in one year - one her choice, the other not. Before setting up her own coaching practice she had a 20+ year career in senior HR roles such as HR Business Partner, Head of Leadership Development, and Head of Talent at British Airways before joining LEON Restaurants as their very first Head of Training. During her time in HR, she led the People workstream for a number of restructuring programmes (which inevitably resulted in redundancies) and has a passion for creating Talent Management strategies that ensure organisations have the right people with the right skills in the right place and time.
Coaching Style and Expertise
Jane’s coaching style is a combination of pragmatic and empathetic, yet she is not afraid to ask you the tough questions – the ones that you have been avoiding for so long now. She believes in setting achievable goals and helping you get further than you ever thought you could go, all while providing the encouragement, and supportive environment you need to succeed. Jane blends pragmatism with a tough yet supportive approach, empowering her clients to achieve their goals while nurturing personal growth and self-belief.

Testimonials
"Jane was assigned to me as a Mentor as part of a Women in Leadership Academy programme run by the Mauritius Institute of Directors. It was extremely fortunate that we clicked from our first meeting. I have thoroughly enjoyed our conversations and Jane has an innate ability to make you think and talk about one's own aspirations. She came into my life when I was facing challenges in my assignment, talking with her brought clarity of mind, and had a big hand in making one of the most difficult decisions in my career. I'm very grateful to her for that. I hope that we will continue our relationship now that the mentorship programme is over. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for some blunt, clear, and genuine mentoring, coaching, or simply career advice".
