Change Careers Without Starting Over

A Practical UK Guide to Finding Work That Fits, Using the Skills You Already Have

Is this it? Or is there something better?

Employment Hero’s 2025 Annual Jobs Report found that one in three UK workers would like to change career completely, and that fear is holding many of them back. But changing career does not mean starting over. Change Careers Without Starting Over is a practical, UK-specific guide to finding work that fits, using the skills you already have. Inside, you will learn how to:

  • work out which kind of “stuck” you really are
  • uncover the transferable skills you already have
  • research and test new directions with small, cheap experiments
  • use funded UK routes, tell your story and plan the money

No dramatic resignations. Just clear, low-risk steps towards work that fits.

About the author

Illustrated portrait of Samuel Thornbury

Samuel Thornbury

Samuel Thornbury starts from the idea that a new career rarely means a blank page. In Change Careers Without Starting Over he walks through listing what you already do well, testing ideas before you commit, and putting your experience on paper for UK employers in plain terms. It is a thinking-and-doing guide, with exercises rather than promises.
