From Policing to Property
from Work Uncovered with Terri Homans
Dave Jones has worked across policing, HR, consulting, business strategy and now buyer’s advocacy. His career is not a straight line, and that is exactly what makes it useful. In this episode, Dave explains what each of these roles actually involves day to day, how one career can lead into another, and why building skills and experience often matters more than following a fixed plan. We also explore what HR looks like beyond the job title, how consulting and strategy work in practice, and what a buyer’s agent actually does in the property market. A key part of the conversation focuses on career pivots. Dave shares how he approached change, what triggered each move, and why “safe” decisions can sometimes lead to the wrong outcome long term. There is also a practical discussion on AI and work. Not hype, but what is already changing, what is being reduced, and what skills will remain valuable. This episode is useful if you are: • considering a career change • exploring HR, consulting or property-related roles • unsure how your current skills could transfer elsewhere • trying to future-proof your career in a changing job market Listen for a grounded, real-world perspective on how careers actually evolve and what it takes to move between them. Real jobs. Real insight. No Gloss.
