#4 Sharon Blyfield OBE | Coca-Cola

#4 Sharon Blyfield OBE | Coca-Cola

The first time I met Sharon, I was absolutely bricking it. We had both been invited to Cumberland Lodge to discuss social mobility and from all the fawning that people were doing, it was clear that Sharon was a big deal. Little did I know that Sharon would go on to be one of my biggest idols.

Sharon describes herself first and foremost as the girl from Shepherds Bush. She is also the Head of Early Careers at one of the biggest companies in the world, Coca-Cola, and is well known by her peers as one of the most eminent Early Careers professionals of her time. Not to mention, she has an OBE. The best part about it? She didn’t need a degree.

In this episode I talk to Sharon about the beauty of apprenticeships, what it was like navigating her career as the girl from Shepherds Bush who didn’t go to university, and her top tips on how to nail the early stages of your career. If you’re a young professional, you’re going to want to hear this.

Happy International Women’s Day, what a privilege it is to be in her orbit. ❤️
