HOW did Sarah Oram build success from the ground up as the founder of Unique Laser Clinics, now rebranded as Australian Skin Clinics?<\/p>\n
She spent the first 10 years of her career advising big business on how to grow as a senior strategy manager at global giant PriceWaterhouseCoopers before deciding on a change.<\/p>\n
Sarah could see her future mapped out before her as part of this big company – this would be a lucrative future, but one in which life would be 12-hour days, time away from home, and a high-stress environment.<\/p>\n
None of which were appealing based on the way Sarah wanted to live her life.<\/p>\n
So, Sarah decided to take a break from work, giving herself the time and head space to think about what was next.<\/p>\n
It was a big move to make, especially given she had no specific idea in mind just an inkling that there was something better out there.<\/p>\n
Sarah identified a gap in the Australian market for top-level, accessible aesthetic services. She founded Unique Laser Clinics, which in 2022 was rebranded to Australian Skin Clinics.<\/p>\n
Originally opening her first clinic 10 years ago, Sarah is now the franchise owner of the Australian Skin Clinics located in Ballarat, Westfield Geelong, and Torquay.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy real motivation for the change was wanting to empower other people, women in particular, to take their lives and their futures in their own hands,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cOne hundred per cent of our staff are women and I am committed to creating exciting career pathways for women from all backgrounds and life situations.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe offer traineeships, education pathways, ownership options and flexible working so we can attract and motivate the best people and therefore can deliver truly excellent outcomes for our clients.<\/p>\n
\u201cI just love helping women thrive in this exciting industry. One of our current team members in Ballarat started with us on a weekly school-based work experience.<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter recognising her talent, we are now supporting her via a full-time traineeship program.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sarah has a thriving home garden, and her change has allowed her to embrace her childhood passion for horse riding.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat I love about owning my own business is I can set my own schedule,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a huge amount of work and it can be hard to take a day off, but I don\u2019t have to work nine to five. I might get up and go for a horse ride, come home and work for a few hours, then take my dog for a walk in the evening.\u201d<\/p>\n
