Sarah was appointed Managing Director of Officeworks in January 2019. Prior to joining Officeworks, Sarah worked across many areas of the Coles Group in positions including Financial Controller and State General Manager, Victoria. Before joining Coles, Sarah worked in the UK for more than 10 years holding a number of senior positions in banking and airports.
Sarah & I talk about the incredible line of strong females in her family. (Google Lady Mary Colton before you start the interview!) We discuss the importance of building influencing skills early in your career, that breadth matters when it comes to career opportunities and what a disaster social media can be when you have a strong & often critical internal voice.
Sarah is part of a two CEO family with 3 young children under nine. (Even as I type this I am fascinated why it is often part of the intro for women and not men).
