Lee was a Secondary Geography teacher with additional responsibility for careers, who has successfully transitioned into Programme Management. He shares with that even though he already changed careers when coming to teaching later in life, he still had a lot to learn about “de-teacherfying” his CV and navigating the world of recruitment. 

In this episode, we also explore:

• Mapping Lee's varied skills from teaching
• Utilising his event's management experience
• Embracing change without fear and knowing it will work out
• Practical career change support that helped him
• Targeting his energy in the job search
• Actually enjoying the interview process!
• Lee's day-to-day and a different type of manageable pressure
• Having his life back!
