Executive, Leadership, Career and Life Coaching in Leeds and Across the UK

I’m Victoria Hopkins, an executive, leadership, career and life coach based in Leeds and working with clients online across the UK.

​

I believe everyone has strengths and abilities they have not fully recognised or used. Sometimes we simply need the right support, a fresh perspective and practical tools to access them. My role is to ask thoughtful questions, offer honest insight and challenge you to see what may be possible.

​

Before becoming a Coach, I spent more than 20 years in senior business leadership, including working as the Managing Director of a family manufacturing business. I have led teams, managed change, made difficult decisions and experienced first hand the pressures that can come with leadership and responsibility. Alongside my professional experience, I have also faced personal challenges of my own, giving me a deeper understanding of how difficult life can feel and how valuable the right support can be. 

​

I have also worked with business and industry organisations, including serving as Chair of Leeds Manufacturing Alliance and supporting initiatives focused on skills, apprenticeships and the future of manufacturing.

​

This means I bring more than coaching theory to our conversations. I understand the realities of leadership, business ownership, career change and trying to make confident decisions when the right answer is not always obvious.

​

Over the years, I have worked with people from many different backgrounds, from senior executives, managers and business owners to people wanting to make a meaningful change in their career or personal life. What they often have in common is a feeling that something is holding them back and a willingness to explore a different way forward.

​

My role is to create a space where you feel heard, supported and challenged in the right ways. Whether you are facing leadership pressures, career uncertainty, confidence issues, mindset blocks or personal hurdles, we will work together to understand what is getting in your way and identify practical next steps.

​

I do not believe coaching is about fixing people. You are not broken. It is about helping you see yourself, your situation and your opportunities from a different perspective.

​

I will not tell you what your life, career or leadership style should look like. Together, we will find solutions that feel realistic and authentic to you. We will break things down into manageable actions so progress feels possible and you can begin to see and feel genuine change, one step at a time.

There is no pressure and no obligation. You also will not be added to any unwanted mailing lists or newsletters.
