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.”

For me, it's very exciting to see how fast the business is growing and it's great to be part of the growth! My favourite time in Alicante is the summer season because there's a lot of action and we give a very good customer service.
