A successful career isn’t always built through the traditional route. In this episode of Talent Unboxed, Danny Roberts shares his journey from office junior to managing partner at a leading law firm, despite not being a qualified lawyer.

Danny discusses why businesses should look beyond degrees and academic backgrounds, why a CV is only the first impression, and why skills, attitude, empathy and the ability to deliver great service can matter just as much.

Whether you’re a job seeker looking to grow your career, a business leader building a team, or a recruiter searching for hidden talent, this conversation highlights the importance of giving people opportunities and recognising potential beyond qualifications.
