Sharon Carr 
Career Smart Founder, Career Coach, based in Australia - Clients GLOBALLY 

How it started for me...

Becoming a career coach and founding Career Smart was the culmination of many years spent finding my own ideal career… the hard way. 

​

I had, on the outside, the dream corporate career - high salary, prestige, travel, meeting global leaders, the lot. I had lead sales and marketing teams in Singapore, China and Australia working for some of the most respected global brands such as Apple, Coca Cola and Unilever. I held a board director role with the Australian Chamber of Commerce in Beijing while I managed a Management Consulting company for Greater China. 

​

And while this progression came with an increasingly rewarding salary, new opportunities and esteem, I was never truly satisfied. I felt there was an essential ingredient missing; a connection between my day-to-day work life and the person I was inside.

 

It was only when I was actively mentoring and training teams and clients that I felt enlivened and excited by my work. â€‹ I LOVED helping other find their path.  What suited them.

​

I have now coached or trained over 2000 clients around the globe and it is my wish to use all my experience and knowledge to get you on the right track to your best career (and life) fit. 

​

 

THIS is my passion. THIS was what motivates me and why Career Smart exists today!

Amazing reviews from my students

Dear Sharon,
Thank you so very much for your time last week. I know you went well over our session time as you thought it would make a difference in my life and I believe it will. That was so kind of you and without expectation of anything in return. 
You've given me so much to think about and I bought the book The Smart but Scattered guide to success for adults and I'm going through it.  You've really opened my eyes to many things.
I look forward to sharing my progress with you as I know you truly do care.
