How to get noticed and hired without the 'ick' factor

The 80/20 Playbook is a practical guide to finding work in a job market where 80% of opportunities are never formally advertised.

It's based on real client work and live workshops delivered to professionals navigating redundancy, career transition, sector change, or uncertainty about next steps.

Rather than focusing on applications, job boards, or recruiters, this course shows you how to access the 80% of opportunities that aren’t advertised and what you can do to position yourself so those opportunities become visible and accessible.

My clients love this approach. It shows you how to get noticed and hired without the ’ick’ factor.

“I’d never struggled to find work before, so the constant rejection and lack of response through job ads was confronting. Dealing with recruiters who seemed focused on keywords and gaps rather than capability made it worse.

Nikki’s 80/20 Playbook was a turning point. She helped me step away from the noise and the 80/20 strategies helped me to refocus on what works and what is within my control. The approach was thoughtful, low-pressure, and very human. It restored my confidence and gave me a sense of control again.

Instead of feeling invisible, I started to feel seen and valued for the depth of experience I bring. Within 3 weeks I had interviews.”

Fiona, 48, manager, organisational capability

“I was spending hours on applications and recruiter calls that went nowhere, and it really eroded my confidence.

Working with Nikki’s 80/20 Playbook was a gamechanger. The structure helped me prioritise my energy, and the approach felt aligned with how senior roles actually get filled. There was no awkward networking or self-promotion – which I’ve always struggled with - just purposeful strategies that work.

The 80/20 playbook was practical, reassuring, and effective. I had a new role 7 weeks later.”

Graeme, 56, telecommunications

“I have a lot of experience, so I assumed finding my next role would be straightforward, but the reality was a series of job ads and recruiter calls that went nowhere. It was frustrating and demoralising.

Nikki’s 80/20 Playbook changed everything. My focus shifted from constant applications to applying the 80/20 Playbook strategies.

The process was clear, structured, and within a matter of weeks I was hearing about the right roles for me. What a relief.”

"I tell my clients they have a choice: respond to job ads and compete with 100s of others to find 'another job'. Or, use my 80/20 Playbook to strategically access the 80% of jobs that aren't advertised and land a next role or best-fit role."
