About Loftus-Webster People Services Ltd

I'm Imelda, and I help professionals with long-term health conditions build careers that don't require burning out to succeed.

I've spent 20 years in HR, working across organisations and supporting people through complex workplace situations. But what really shaped my work was building my own career while managing a chronic health condition, learning through trial and error what actually works when the standard career advice doesn't fit your reality.

That experience changed everything. I saw the gap between what professionals with health conditions need and what traditional HR or career coaching offers. So I became a coach, combining my HR expertise (I'm CIPD-qualified) with coaching credentials and lived experience to offer something different.

What I Do

I specialise in career coaching for professionals managing long-term health conditions. The work focuses on the things nobody else talks about:

• How to manage your energy strategically, not just "push through"
• Making informed decisions about workplace disclosure
• Requesting adjustments that actually work
• Positioning yourself for career progression without sacrificing your health
• Having workplace conversations that get results
• Building sustainable careers, not just surviving your current role

Why It Works

I understand both sides. I know how workplaces function, what managers respond to, and how HR systems actually work. And I know what it's like to calculate whether you have the energy for that meeting, to weigh up disclosure decisions, to ask for adjustments and worry about the consequences.

You'll get practical tools, clear frameworks, and honest coaching from someone who's navigated it themselves.

Who I Work With

My clients are professionals who are:

• Tired of managing alone and ready for strategies that actually fit
• Facing disclosure decisions or adjustment conversations
• Looking for career progression that doesn't require burnout
• Returning to work after absence
• At career crossroads and need to factor health into the decision

You're capable, experienced professionals who don't need hand holding, you need someone who gets it and can help you move forward strategically.
