Hello ,
I would like some advice from you lovely wise people. I would like to retrain into something that will give me a good income. I have a degree in Business Mgt and graduated 20 years ago. I have held some good jobs in the past but took 10 years out to raise my young family. My youngest is now at school full time.
I am currently working part time doing admin work for a law firm. It's NMW and even though I enjoy it..I want to do something that pays well and offers career progression.
Looking at jobs available in the workplace..there don't seem to be many available that pay well and offer flexible / part time working. I've recently qualified as a beauty therapist but don't have the room at home to have clients over. I do offer mobile services as and when I can.
I've been looking into educational psychology , pharmacy technician, teaching.
Please could you give me your own examples if you've retrained - I'm at a loss as to what are the best careers that offer a degree of flexibility.
Thank you in advance.
