Is Your Executive Resume Selling You Short?

You’ve built an impressive career, but your resume doesn't capture it. It reads like a list of duties - not a story of leadership, impact, and results. Your unique value is buried under a layer of generic facts and corporate platitudes. You’ve added to it over the years, but it hasn’t improved - just grown longer.

Executive Resumes That Sell Your Brand.

Why do most executive resumes fail?

Most resumes - even the ones written by executive resume writers - are just glorified flyers. They list your roles, skills, and a few bullet-point wins, but they stop short of what actually matters: positioning you as a unique, winning candidate. Competent? Sure. Compelling? Not even close.

Position Yourself As The Obvious Best Choice.

Not a "maybe".

The best executive resumes don’t just showcase experience. They they make a case for your unique value. We pitch you as the answer to employers' commercial challenges, so decision-makers see you as a strategic asset, not another resume in the pile.

Dianne Hamey
Philippa was excellent - she delivered an eloquently written and sophisticated on point cv, Linkedin profile, cover letter and associated artefacts. It gave me real confidence in my career journey. Thanks!
Response from the owner:Really appreciate it, Dianne. So glad we could help bring your career story to life.
Alistair King
Arielle Executive has been a fantastic partner from the beginning. Their bespoke approach, close collaboration and supportive style helped develop a range of professional documents that perfectly suited my needs. The team were a great support in navigating changes I wanted to make in my professional profile and helped me articulate these perfectly. I would highly recommend their service and support.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Alistair. We’re thrilled the branding process hit the mark - wishing you all the best for what’s next.

I recently worked with Arielle Executive for the second time, and I can confidently say that my experience was just as fantastic as the first. Two years ago, I sought their help to revamp my resume and personal brand, and now I’ve returned for an update, and it was well worth it!

The team at Arielle from the start took time to understand my individual experiences, skills, and ambitions. They have a knack for making the process feel less like a chore and more like a coaching session. I appreciated the opportunity to unpack my career journey with a knowledgeable third party, who provided valuable insights and perspective, as I had been in the same organization for 10 years, I needed the process as much as the collateral!

The results were impressive! Not only did I receive a polished resume and strong personal brand materials, but my LinkedIn collateral was great. The final products not only reflect my professional background but also highlight my aspirations effectively.

I’ve already recommended Arielle to friends and have seen them grow their careers as result. If you're looking to revisit and publish your work-self or just need a fresh take on your professional materials, I highly recommend Arielle Executive. Their expertise and personalized approach make a significant difference!
Response from the owner:Anthony, thank you for trusting us again - we’re so glad the personal branding experience was just as valuable the second time around!
Kim Harland
Using Arielle Executive to re-create my CV and Linkedin profile was a game changer. Having struggled to get to interview stage with my old CV, I had three interviews within weeks of the Arielle updates. An excellent and worthwhile process.
Response from the owner:Kim, thank you for sharing. 3 interviews is a great start!
Andrew Rowe
An extremely robust process that draws out the key highlights from your career to develop a perfect LinkedIn profile, CV, pitch and ultimately your personal brand. I am very pleased with the outcome allowing me to articulate my core strengths. Thank you to the Arielle Executive team. 😊🙏
Response from the owner:Thank you for the lovely feedback, Andrew. We’re so glad the process helped you articulate your strengths and elevate your personal brand.
Jason Uzice
I highly recommend the team at Arielle Executive. Philippa Counsell wrote my resume in 2019, and I have subsequently worked with Philippa on two occasions to update my resume for a new career opportunity and for a general update to keep my resume current. On each occasion I have found Arielle's Career Meditation process highly beneficial as a precursor to my consultation with Philippa whom I'm always impressed with her level of perception, questioning and openness of conversation. Philippa has the great ability to extract and document key information from me which has been crucial in highlighting my professional achievements, my accomplishments, and my talents as an Executive leader and on occasions helping me position myself for job opportunities which I've always been the preferred or successful candidate for.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your continued trust, Jason. Supporting your career growth has been a privilege.
Olivia Bakarich
Highly recommend. The Arielle Executive team provide an impeccable service from start to finish. They are the masters of translating all of you authentically onto a page where every word counts. Very satisfied repeat customer.
Response from the owner:Great to have you back, Olivia. Thank you for your continued trust.
Nicole Schrijnemakers
Philippa, Irene and the Arielle team have done an amazing job. The whole process was smooth, efficient and very professional. Philippa is an active listener, has deep understanding of the situation and is adept at turning a 'brain dump' of information into a cohesive, effective and attractive value proposition. She's easy to talk to, empathic and asks the right questions, which helped me to get a better view of the next in my career. And the result is outstanding!
I highly recommend the Arielle team and will use them again in the future.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your feedback and vote of confidence, Nicole.
Fiona Renoux
Response from the owner:Thanks for the five stars, Fiona.
Colm Mooney
Excellent, professional and seamless process. The team at Arielle are great listeners capturing key achievements, goals, and attributes to optimise your personal branding. All round great service.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Colm. Looking forward to hearing about your next project.
Paul Plunkett
Excellent, smooth process, very pleased with my CV overhaul. Interview coaching was also very enlightening, lots of practical, easy to remember tips for effective interviews.
Response from the owner:Thanks Paul, we thoroughly enjoyed working with you.
Shilpa Achan
Works with the customer, to capture experiences in resume highlighting and shaping personal brand.
Response from the owner:Thanks Shilpa, it was great to work with you.
Natalie Tabone
Very positive experience working with the Arielle Executive team.

Phillipa was great to work with and captured my key messages, helping me to effectively market myself.

Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Thanks Natalie, we loved helping you articulate your value.

3 Executive Resume Types That Fail.

Is your current resume working as hard as you do?

Type 1

The Elvis.

Your resume is stuck in the past. It tells employers about a few of your greatest hits, but it doesn't convey what you can do for them today. It's bogged in technical details, making you look less senior than you are.

Type 2

The Justin Bieber.

Are you unsure of your direction? Targeting multiple roles with one resume? Trying to please everyone will make you a great fit for no one.

Type 3

The Nicholas Cage.

You have a complex, impressive, diverse career - but your resume doesn’t capture it. It reads like a rambling, confusing list of duties rather than a razor-sharp business case with a clear message.

Frequently Asked Questions.

Everything you've ever wanted to know about hiring an executive resume writer.

Branding elevates your standard executive resume into a sales pitch for the brand "you". We package the unique mix of your leadership skills, achievements, values and personality traits into a narrative that captures your value and positions you as a strong fit for your next leadership role.
Perfection cannot be hurried. Some things are worth taking time over - your career is one of them. Our goal is delivering the best outcome for you, not chasing the highest volume of sales.
An exclusive focus on senior leaders means we stay at the top of our game. Our clients hold corporate leadership positions such as CXO, GM, MD, Director, Senior Manager, Head Of, VP and SVP. If you're not yet at this level, we'll be happy to refer you to trusted resume writers in the space. Don't hesitate to enquire.
We offer a high-touch executive resume branding service, and our fees reflect this level of attention, starting at $2,500. Please contact us to find out more.
Resume writing often attracts ex-HR or admin professionals looking for a softer path. Some of our competitors even hire aspiring musicians! While well-meaning, they lack the commercial acumen needed to understand drivers of executive success - creating resumes full of noise, not impact.
In Australia, 10–25 candidates typically apply for each senior leadership role. Of those, only 3–5 are invited to interview, and just one secures the position. The deciding factor? It's not merit, but the ability to market themselves.
You might not feel stuck - but you might be playing it safe. As a senior leader, you may be ‘successfully stuck’ at your current level. Many senior leaders stall their careers by making cautious choices, driven by the fear of losing their title, income, or lifestyle. Ironically, that fear often leads to losing all three. A strong personal brand can shift the momentum - by helping you compete for the best roles at top companies.
Yes. Senior leaders globally use our executive resume writing service. Most of our clients are based in Australia, Europe, Singapore, the Middle East and North America.
After careful consideration, we decided that the popular CPRW and CMRW resume writing certifications didn't meet the needs of senior leaders. Too many leaders came to us whose resumes, written by CPRW or CMRW-certified writers, failed to perform. That's why we created proprietary, brand-focused ExecutiveExcellence™ technology for executive resume writing. Our writers undergo 12 months of supervised training to become certified in its use. To ensure our technology remains up-to-date, we regularly attend HR and recruitment conferences while closely following workplace trends on leading business blogs like Bloomberg, WSJ and QZ.
Yes. We have the highest number of 5-star Google reviews among all executive resume writers. Clients also consistently send us feedback via email, which you can read here.
We are executive-level career specialists with exclusive access to proprietary ExecutiveExcellence™ branding technology. No other Australian executive resume service has earned the trust of 3,000 senior leaders, maintained a 4.9-star rating for over 13 years, or been featured in 40+ media outlets.
Your privacy is our top priority. Over the past 13 years, we’ve built a reputation for discretion, handling sensitive information with care, and maintaining vault-like confidentiality. CEOs of publicly listed multinationals, senior government ministers and leaders of PE firms trust us with their identities, business plans and life lessons. Your information stays within the confines of our tight-knit team.
You’ll receive your resume in an editable Microsoft Word format. It will be unlocked, with no restrictions - so you can update it anytime, on your terms.
