I develop new food and drink ideas / products for food & drink companies. Earn circa £100k a year.

Really interesting replies thank you everyone.

I'm asking because I've been SAHP for a while now, and in the next 12-18m I will get some time back as littlest starts preschool/school.

I was working just short of FT in my previous role, earning around £65k basic and bonuses/benefits on top.

The simple option would be to go back to that, but I'd really rather try to do something independently, to give me control and freedom.

I could just get a simple PT role for a few hours, but I'm curious as to whether it could be worth my while to try something I could make more £££ at without just going back to working for the "man" iyswim.

I could consult in my previous field and make a lot more than I was on salary but that leaves me a bit meh tbh. I'm not passionate about it, so having to be my own "driver" and motivator so to speak, doesn't exactly fill me with excitement...
