As some of the lockdown measures begin to ease, more and more people are expecting to return to work. But there is a large question mark over how many of their jobs - and even their employers - will survive as we begin to emerge from this pandemic.

It's likely things will get worse for the jobs market before they get better. So does that mean mass unemployment and disaster for the economy? Or is this the perfect moment for people who want to change direction with their career, and seize upon the new opportunities the crisis has presented?

One person who knows all about forging an opportunity out of crisis is Claire Owen, the  founder of recruitment agency Stopgap. 

In this episode, we talk about the kind of jobs that are going to be in high demand in the future, as well as what it takes to go it alone in the world of business.
