A local careers coach is encouraging those unhappy in their jobs to come forward and meet like-minded professionals.

Jamie Dimock, 34, from St Albans, is hoping to hold regular meetings for people looking for a career change through his initiative Get Unchained.

Jamie, who until six months ago worked in finance, said: ā€œIā€™d like to get people who are unsatisfied with their current career into something that makes them happy to even get up on a Monday morning.ā€

Just two days after being publicised online, the event already had 36 interested users.

The first get-together will be held on March 9, and a venue in St Albans will be chosen once numbers are known.
