Founder and Career Development Consultant
Karen Berry — Founder of Yellow Coral
Meet Karen
Yellow Coral was born from a simple belief: with the right support, guidance, and encouragement, people can move confidently toward careers that inspire and fulfil them.
Karen Berry founded Yellow Coral after years of experience in recruitment, career development, and employability support. She has guided professionals exploring new directions, seeking fresh opportunities, or stepping into their next level of growth.
What Karen saw again and again was this: people often have more potential than they realise. Sometimes all it takes is clarity, imagination, and someone to help turn their experience into opportunity. That’s the heart of Yellow Coral.
A Practical, Creative Approach
Karen’s background in recruitment gives her deep insight into how organisations hire and what they value in talent. But coaching for her is never just about CVs, applications, or interviews.
It’s about helping people:
- Unlock confidence in their abilities
- Recognise and leverage transferable skills
- Explore new pathways and career possibilities
- Take clear, achievable steps toward growth
Her approach blends practical strategy with creativity and imagination, turning complex career transitions into exciting, manageable journeys.
Why “Yellow Coral”?
Coral grows through structure, connection, and resilience. It adapts, strengthens, and forms vibrant ecosystems over time. For Karen, it’s the perfect metaphor for careers:
Paths don’t always follow a straight line. Careers evolve, shift, and flourish in unexpected directions. With the right guidance, support, and structure, people can grow stronger, reach higher, and find more rewarding opportunities than ever before.
Yellow Coral embodies this philosophy — fostering growth, resilience, and meaningful career journeys.
