FOCUS : ADVICE NEW DIRECTION? Perhaps it's time not just for a new job, but also for something more radical? One survey conducted earlier this year found 54% of UK workers want to change career, with the figure rising to 72% for those aged between 25 and 34. Our guest editor Sarah Willingham decided on a vital change of direction when she gradually realised her career no longer aligned with her long-term goals. 'I spent my early career working with successful high-street restaurant chains Planet Hollywood and Pizza Express,' Sarah says. 'But in my mid-20s I realised I wanted to create things, make some money and, more importantly, be free to run my own diary... as well as my own destiny. 'When I added it all together I realised if I was going to be in control, I'd need to do it myself. That was the moment I chose to become an entrepreneur. Soon afterwards, I went it alone and raised sufficient finance to buy The Bombay Bicycle Club.' J O B S & C A R E E R S /// 2 8 9
