You have already left clinical work, or you are clearly on your way out, and now you face a different problem: convincing non-NHS employers that your years in medicine count for something they can use. You may have a CV gap, a sense that recruiters do not know what to do with you, and a nagging worry that you are starting from zero. You are not starting from zero. You are starting from a misfiled position, and the job is to repackage and prove, fast.
Repackage your clinical experience into credible, legible value for your target field, address the CV gap and the 'why did you leave' question head-on, and generate fast proof-of-work so you are judged on demonstrated ability, not on a confusing CV. By day 90 you should have a clear narrative, real proof, and live opportunities, often with contracting as a wedge.

This is educational career guidance, not a promise of a job, a salary, or any specific outcome, and not financial or legal advice. Your results depend on your own effort and circumstances. Make big decisions with proper professional advice where it matters.
Do not resign a training post or change your contract on the strength of a quiz or a plan. Talk to your deanery, your educational supervisor, and your medical defence organisation first. Leaving and re-entering training has real consequences worth understanding before you act.
