About / The practice

Who you'd actually be working with.

Bridge Career Consulting is a two-person practice in Athens, Greece. A certified career consultant and a career coach, working with validated assessment models and plain language, for students, career changers and professionals who are underrepresented on paper.

CERTIFIED CAREER CONSULTANT

Manousos Vasilakis

01

Manousos runs the assessment and strategy side of the practice. He holds a Diploma in Career Consulting awarded by Career Gate Test in collaboration with the University of Piraeus, and works with validated instruments rather than personality quizzes. Alongside the consulting qualification he is certified in negotiation and in conflict resolution, and holds a certification in digital marketing and branding, which is why the personal-branding work here goes further than a tidier CV.

  • Career Consulting Diploma by Career Gate Test & University of Piraeus
  • Certified in Negotiation by the University of Michigan & Loyola University of New Orleans
  • Certified in Conflict Resolution by Australia's Conflict Resolution Network
  • Digital Marketing & Branding Mix Diploma by the National and Kapodistrian University
  • Certified LinkedIn Expert in Marketing Strategy and Content & Creative Design
  • Bachelor's in Psychological Science and Techniques by Marconi University (Ongoing)
CAREER COACH

George Mantzanas

02

George runs the coaching side: the part after the report, where a plan either gets executed or quietly abandoned. Interview rehearsal, accountability between sessions, and the difficult conversations clients are avoiding with a manager, a family, or themselves. He works with students choosing a first direction and with professionals several years into the wrong one.

  • One-to-one career coaching
  • Interview preparation & mock interviews
  • Goal setting and accountability
  • Bachelor's in Business Administration by the Athens University of Economics and Business 

How we work.

01

Evidence before advice

Nothing gets recommended because it sounds encouraging. Assessment results, your own history and the state of the market come first, and we tell you when a model is weaker than people claim.

02

You leave with documents

Every stage produces something written: a results debrief, a shortlist of targets, a rebuilt CV, a negotiation script. You can hold us to a plan that exists on paper.

03

Two people, one case file

A certified consultant and a coach discussing the same client. You explain your situation once and both sides of the work stay aligned.

04

Confidential, and honest about fit

What you tell us stays between us. If your problem is legal, clinical or simply not a career problem, we say so and point you somewhere better rather than booking more sessions.
