Outplacement Career Coach

Summary

Join Respiris, a founder-led marketplace reimagining outplacement, as a Job Search Coach and make a meaningful impact. This portfolio income opportunity, not a full-time job, is perfect for founders, freelancers, or those seeking flexible, purpose-driven work. As a coach, you'll guide clients through a 90-day, 10-session journey using empathetic support and AI-enabled tools. You'll have the autonomy to coach your way while gaining access to a supportive ecosystem. Note that client matching may take 3–6 months. This fractional opportunity allows you to build your coaching practice while earning referral commissions and participating in a values-aligned community.
