Compassionate career transition support for departing employees
Support for people leaving, delivered by a firm whose other half spends its days filling roles in the same market. Each person gets one coach, a rebuilt CV and LinkedIn profile, interview practice, and sight of the mandates our recruiters are working on right now. Priced per person, packaged by length, or per cohort where a whole unit is affected.

How it works
1
Scope
We start privately, with HR or the director carrying the decision. How many people, at what levels, why, and by when. We ask separately what a good outcome would look like for the company and what it would look like for the individuals, because those answers are never the same and pretending otherwise produces a programme that serves neither. Out of that comes a recommended structure, individual tiers, a fixed-length package, a cohort rate, or something bespoke, written into an engagement letter before a single person is enrolled.
2
Onboard
Within five working days each person has a coach, and keeps that coach to the end. The opening session names what has happened, does not dwell on it, and turns quickly to what can be done this month: what they want next, which sectors are realistic, and getting their CV and profile into shape. There is no rotating service desk behind this.
3
Run
Weekly sessions work through search strategy, interview practice with written feedback, and how to handle the money conversation. Alongside that runs the part a coaching firm cannot replicate: our own consultants are filling roles across Jakarta and the wider market this week, and people in our programmes are put in front of them. That means being considered before a role is advertised, and being taken through a real process by someone who closes offers for a living.
4
Close
Every programme closes with a written report: where the person ended up, whether they placed, changed direction, or are still looking, what they made of the experience, and when the follow-up calls are scheduled, normally at one month and three. Where a group went through together, the HR sponsor also receives a view across the whole cohort, including how the process was received by the people in it.
Outplacement services Indonesia - backed by 24+ years of recruitment heritage
When restructuring decisions reach the people stage, your departing colleagues deserve dignity, structure, and a real path forward, and your remaining team needs to see that you took care of the people who left. People Profilers has supported career transitions across Indonesia and the wider region, backed by 24+ years of regional group heritage, and our Outplacement practice runs through PT People Profilers Services - our Indonesian entity, established 2025. We operate nine legal entities across Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam, and we've spent two decades placing professionals at every level from junior specialist through C-suite. That recruitment depth is what separates a thorough outplacement program from one that ends at "we polished your CV." Every candidate we coach is also surfaced into our live talent pool - introduced to the recruiters working on their target sector, considered for active mandates before public advertisement, and supported through real job-search conversations by people who close offers for a living. For your business, that means departing employees move on faster, separation packages reach their conclusion cleanly, and your employer brand stays intact through what would otherwise be a difficult chapter.
What's included in every outplacement program
Four components, always together: coaching, document rebuild, interview preparation, and access to live mandates. They are not sold separately because the fourth is what gives the first three somewhere to go. Pricing is built around the situation rather than published as a rate card.
Program scope (every candidate)
- ✓1:1 career coaching with dedicated coach
- ✓Professional CV & LinkedIn rewrites
- ✓Interview preparation & salary negotiation
- ✓Direct access to PP's live recruitment mandates
Program structures available
- ✓Per-candidate, tiered by seniority
- ✓Per-program packaged duration (3 / 6 / 12 months)
- ✓Group / bulk pricing for restructurings
- ✓Custom-scoped per engagement
Delivery commitments
- ✓Coach assigned within 5 business days
- ✓Weekly coaching cadence during active search
- ✓Surfacing into live mandates within target sector
- ✓Program close report + post-placement check-ins
The engagement letter fixes scope, fees and inclusions before anyone enrols. What cannot honestly be promised is a date by which somebody is placed, because that sits with employers and the market. What is promised is the programme: a named coach, a weekly rhythm while the search is active, documents rewritten by people who read CVs professionally, structured interview practice, and active introduction into mandates we are working on.
When outplacement services make sense
Outplacement fits employers who want to protect both their employer brand and the people they're letting go. Three patterns we see most often.
Workforce restructuring or group reduction
Multi-role separations triggered by reorganisation, cost reduction, business-unit closure, or strategic pivot. Group programs structure individual coaching alongside cohort workshops, and the employer brand impact of doing this well - versus minimally - shows up in the years that follow.
Executive or C-suite transition
Senior leader departures where the transition needs to be handled with discretion and the departing executive deserves a thoughtful, senior-level program - board-readiness positioning, sector-specific case-interview prep, direct introductions to executive search desks, network mapping across regional markets.
Individual senior or specialist departure
Single-candidate transitions where the departing employee is senior, specialised, or otherwise warrants individual program structure. Typical for mid-to-senior professionals whose next role is sector-specific and needs active recruiter-network surfacing rather than pure coaching.
The recruitment-network access in every program is what separates our outplacement work from pure career-coaching firms. Candidates aren't just job-search-ready when they finish. They've been introduced to actual roles. If you also need restructuring strategy upstream of the separation, see our HR Consultation service. If your scenario is replacement hiring for departed seniors, our Executive Search desk handles the next step.

Industries & Functions We Cover

Because we recruit into these sectors, a departing employee gets someone who already knows their market and can put them in front of it.

Frequently asked questions
How is your outplacement service different from generic career-coaching firms?
A coaching firm improves how someone searches. That has value, but the person is still approaching the market from outside it, sending applications into companies that do not know them.
Our business is filling roles. The consultants doing that work sit in the same office as the coaches, so somebody in a programme can be considered for something real rather than advised on how to find it. That is an organisational difference, not a better service tier.
What it changes in practice is the ratio of applications to conversations. Fewer of the first, more of the second, which is what actually shortens a search and keeps the exit from turning into a grievance.
How is pricing structured for outplacement programs?
No published rates, because a single senior exit and a plant-wide reduction are not the same commercial problem. Four structures exist and we recommend one after understanding which you have.
Per person, banded by level. Executive, senior, mid and junior programmes differ in depth and duration. This covers one person or a small number.
Per person at a fixed duration. Three, six or twelve months at a flat fee, chosen when a defined end point and a predictable budget matter more than flexibility.
Per cohort. A reduced rate per head where a group is leaving together, which is the usual case for a restructuring or a site closure.
Bespoke. Where the profiles, the timeline or what needs including does not resemble any of the above.
Whichever applies, fees and inclusions are documented before the first enrolment.
How quickly do candidates typically find new roles?
More variably than most providers admit. Junior and mid-level people in sectors that are hiring often move inside two months. Senior searches take longer because there are fewer roles and slower decisions, and anyone changing industry should expect longer again.
The number we watch is not weeks elapsed but live conversations. Someone in three active processes is in a fundamentally different position from someone who has sent sixty applications, however long each has been going.
Do you guarantee placement?
No. Whether someone is hired depends on the economy, on sector hiring cycles, on what the person decides they actually want, and on an employer's own timing. A provider is in control of none of that.
The commitments we can make are about the programme: a coach within five working days, weekly sessions while the search is live, documents rewritten by people with recruitment backgrounds, mock interviews with real feedback, salary negotiation preparation, and active introduction into the mandates we are running.
Promising an outcome would close more deals and would fail the person it was promised to.
What does the experience feel like for the departing employee?
Mostly it depends on the first hour. Done well, it acknowledges the situation honestly, avoids lingering in it, and moves to something concrete: what they want next, where that is realistic, and getting their documents fixed this week.
After that, what people tell us mattered was the consistency. One coach who remembers the last conversation, a fixed hour in a period that otherwise has no structure, and at some point a call about a live role in their sector, which is the moment the search stops feeling theoretical.
Can you handle group outplacement for a large restructuring?
Yes, and a cohort is where the recruitment side matters most.
Everyone onboards together at a per head rate, coaches are allocated by sector rather than arbitrarily, and the HR sponsor receives reporting across the group: progress, outcomes, and how the process is being talked about internally.
By the end of the first week our consultants across several sectors are already weighing those people against roles they are working on. In a site closure or a unit shutdown, that is the part employees notice and the part that protects your standing as an employer afterwards.
