Always Say Yes, You Never Know Where It’ll Take You - With Sarah Slater
This week, Jack and Karen welcome Sarah Slater, a true force in the live entertainment industry and a champion of saying yes to unexpected opportunities.
Now leading the Music & Festivals division at Ticketmaster UK, Sarah’s career has taken her from production management in outreach programmes to senior roles in ticketing and e-commerce. With over 15 years of experience, she’s built a reputation for trusted leadership, strategic growth, and solid relationships with some of the UK’s biggest promoters and event organisers.
Sarah shares her winding journey, the lessons she’s learned along the way, and why she swears by the mantra: “Always make sure you’re doing a good job — you never know who’s watching!”
If you’re looking for inspiration, career insights, or just love a good behind-the-scenes story from the world of live events, this one’s for you.
