Go Beyond the Obvious: Aspire, Amplify, Advance

Empowering Career Transformation at Every Stage

Whether you’re starting your first job, preparing for leadership, or making a major career transition, Martin Lewis Knowles is your trusted partner in career transformation. Through a powerful blend of career coaching, e-learning, structured courses, and a vibrant learning community with live masterclasses, we help professionals thrive at every stage of their journey.

Most people don’t land their dream job—they stumble into work through guesswork, outdated advice, or blind chance. Traditional career guidance often lacks relevance, and by the time you graduate, the job market has already evolved.

With nearly 30 years of experience guiding thousands of professionals, managers and leaders through career development, I’ve seen firsthand how the right learning at the right time can unlock potential and accelerate growth.

My mission is simple yet powerful: to empower individuals, evolve organizations, and create a future where learning is strategic, personalized, and transformative.

Testimonials

"Martin is a great coach, best I had so far. He is very approachable, very good listener and making me think differently, focused me to think which is good thing and not Martin giving me the answers. Love the way he asks me to recap from each session what was discussed in previous session, what learnings I have adapted and the approach I take moving forward. He's made me think in a whole new world. The environment Martin creates during the session is like meeting up with a old friend and catching up. I feel relaxed and able to speak in an honest, trusted and open environment."

SKHead of Operations

"I would recommend Martin as he has a very relaxed approach and made me feel comfortable from the offset. This was important for me as being new to this process it helped me get the most out of the sessions we had. The discussions were fruitful in terms of goals set, both going forward beyond the sessions but also setting goals between them helped to put into practice what we had discussed."

RSHead of Development

"After 12 years of employment, with access to all the training I could possible wish for, I still had no idea about what I was really good at… I struggled to identify my talents and as a result I didn't know how to progress my career. So, I decided to try a session with a talent coach - Martin Knowles. Now that I have this knowledge, I know how to shape my career into something more meaningful which will help me progress a lot quicker. Without this insight from Martin, my career would have plateaued or worse- declined."

CJHead of Marketing

"Very perceptive, articulate, good communicator and good listener I have not taken part in any coaching previously but having found these sessions very helpful and worthwhile I would consider having coaching again in the future and building my knowledge of this approach. Even comfortable with the odd bit of role play which I normally have an aversion to. I found my sessions with Martin very helpful and worthwhile. His style and methods were very effective bringing self awareness and helping me to realise how to position myself to focus on what I do best and approach future development."
