Succeeding in your career doesn’t have to mean managing others, here’s why

thanks to the pressure of always being ‘on’ and feeling trapped between the expectations of their own bosses and the team they manage.

My specialism is workplace design and right now, I’m the lead designer on a campus renovation project for software company Adobe, in San Jose, California. I travel there every two weeks to oversee the design and it’s an incredible job. It’s a new building which our team in the States designed and I’m leading a team of 10 on the interior design.

My job is hands on. I’m in the same room as the people who make our garments and I do everything from building the website to managing social media. In a typical day, I might film what the makers are doing for our social media channels, look for editorial opportunities and oversee photoshoots either on location or in the photography studio we have on site.

I’m lucky that in my NHS job I do far more clinical than managerial work. I’m based on an in-patient unit for 13-18 year olds with mental health conditions, such as eating disorders, depression and psychosis. It’s so fulfilling seeing patients get better and I get to see the direct results of my efforts. If I was in a managerial role I wouldn’t get to see a huge amount of those real stories.
