Hello, I'm Ed Jackson .

I offer career coaching, mentoring, job interview preparation, mock interviews, and résumé reviews. I can help to improve your communication skills, both verbal and written. I’ve acted as a business mentor and career coach for over 10 years, at first alongside my day-job in sales at Amazon, and more recently as an independent business coach. I love helping people to develop new skills and to advance their careers. From 2012-2022 I worked for Amazon, both as a Hiring Manager and as a senior Amazon Bar Raiser, interviewing over 500 candidates, mentoring new Bar Raisers through their BR training, and delivering training sessions to hundreds of Amazon employees. (What's a Bar Raiser, anyway? https://www.aboutamazon.co.uk/news/working-at-amazon/what-is-a-bar-raiser-at-amazon.) Alongside my coaching, I have 26 years’ sales experience as a Principal Account Manager and Sales Manager at big tech companies including Cisco, Microsoft and Amazon Web Services. I won many of AWS’s early, strategically important contracts with UK public sector organizations, delivering 955% revenue growth over 5 years from 2013 to 2018. I left Amazon in 2022 and now work as a freelance coach and consultant.
