Career
I’m 50years. Ran a Pharma manufacturing business, unfortunately Covid was not kind to me and could not survive for too long & finally sold the factory & paid off the banks OD limit. Took a job with someone I knew in Modular Manufacturing as Vice President, but it seems this person will want to sell this company soon. Looking for senior level / management positions but difficult to get into the job scene at 50. Please suggest/guide.. I will treat my job as an entrepreneur more than an employee & am good at creating international export markets too (My highest level of education is M.E.P @ IIM Ahemdabad)
Ans: Namaste sir, considering your huge experience in pharma manufacturing, and running the business, you are ideally positioned to consulting business. Now at the age of 50 don’t ask job instead help new comers through crisis management, regulatory experience, and industry connections. You can leverage your experience as a consultant.(I am considering that you have a degree in the pharmaceutical field as its essential if you want to become a pharmaceutical consultant)
Even if you don’t have phrama degree you can offer consultancy from the business management point of view, where the biggest issue for every industry is effective client acquisition strategies through your past experience you can work smoothly
As you are saying that “I will treat my job as an entrepreneur more than an employee” so its now the time to treat yourself as Consultant and work as entrepreneur. lastly you can also efficiently guide for all those who need international market.
