Elevating the Way People Lead, Work, and Grow Together
At Active Career Step, we offer tailored talent solutions to help international organizations (whether in the development, humanitarian, social impact or private sectors) attract, retain, and develop the right people. With a background in global talent acquisition and leadership coaching, we bring both strategic insight and human-centered practices to every partnership.
Whether you’re filling a critical leadership role, supporting your team through change, or building internal capacity, we collaborate closely with you to design solutions that align with your mission, values, and organizational context.
Executive Search
Find the right leader to drive your mission forward
Hiring for a senior or executive role isn’t just about filling a position — it’s about shaping the future of your organization. You need someone who can deliver results, inspire teams, and embody your values in action. We specialize in helping mission-driven organizations find leaders who bring not only expertise, but deep alignment with your culture, context, and long-term vision.
Our approach goes beyond technical fit — it’s human-centered, values-driven, and built on trust.
We offer:
• In-depth consultations to understand your strategic goals and team dynamics
• Values-driven sourcing to identify culturally aligned candidates
• Transparent, inclusive processes that reflect your brand and ethos
• Comprehensive support from profile definition to final selection
Expected Outcome: You don’t just hire someone who can do the job.
You bring in a leader who is capable, committed, and connected to your purpose — ready to help your organization grow and thrive.
Recruitment Services
Build strong, purpose-aligned teams
Beyond leadership, we support the recruitment of mid- to senior-level professionals across program, operations, and support functions. Our approach combines sector knowledge, and a personalized, ethical process.
We provide:
• Customized search based on your organizational needs and structure
• Collaborative profile development and targeted outreach
• Candidate screening that considers both skills and mission alignment
• Support with onboarding and early-stage integration

Coaching for Leaders
Empower your people to grow, adapt, and lead with purpose!
We offer one-on-one coaching for leaders, managers, and professionals navigating transitions, new roles, or leadership growth. Coaching supports engagement, retention, resilience, and aligned performance.
Our approach:
• Tailored coaching engagements (short-term or long-term) for individuals.
• Focus on clarity, confidence, resilience, and purpose-driven leadership
• Confidential, high-trust space for reflection, feedback, and strategy
• Integration with performance goals or organizational change initiatives
Expected Outcome: Leaders and staff who are confident, self-aware, and aligned with your mission
Career Workshops
Support your people through change and re-engagement
We design and deliver interactive workshops that help staff navigate change with clarity, confidence, and purpose. Whether your team is going through a restructure, preparing for leadership transitions, or facing the end of a project or contract, my workshops provide meaningful career support during uncertain times.
Grounded in our career coaching practice, these sessions go beyond generic advice — they equip participants with real tools to take ownership of their next move.
We offer:
• Customized content tailored to your organizational context, workforce composition, and language needs (English or French)
• Practical workshops focused on career reflection, job search strategy, positioning, personal branding, and interview preparation
• Workshops delivered virtually or in-person, with an emphasis on participation, inclusion, and relevance
• Safe, empowering spaces where individuals feel heard, respected, and supported — whether they’re staying or transitioning out.
Expected Outcome: Empowered staff who feel supported, engaged, and better prepared for what’s next for them.

Meaningful engagement starts with a conversation. We listen deeply to your goals, your culture, and the challenges you’re navigating so we can design solutions that truly fit.
