Sarah's journey at WHSmith
“My career journey has been surprising, exciting, varied and full of opportunity- working with some amazing people throughout. I would never have believed when I started as a Store Manager, I would be carrying out the role I do today.
I never stop learning, developing- even more so now having an international focus to my role and I get to add value to a growing and evolving business, every day.”
