LinkedIn Strategy

A Better LinkedIn Headline Formula for Senior Professionals

Your headline is a search field and a first impression. Make it do both jobs.

9 June 2026 · 5 min read

A job title alone wastes the single most indexed field on your profile. Recruiters search by role, specialism and sector — your headline should contain all three.

A reliable structure: target role, then core specialisms, then the outcome you deliver. Keep it readable; a keyword list reads as desperate rather than authoritative.

Then align the About section to the same language. Consistency between headline, About and experience is what lifts profiles in recruiter search.

Next step

Position your career with intent.

Book a consultation and leave with a clear view of how your experience should be presented to the market you are targeting.
