Hi all, new to posting but not to the forum. But, I’m struggling with my career, where to do next, and I’m throwing a line out for anyone that may have their own lessons learned to share.
For context, I’m a project manager in the EV charging infrastructure space. Nothing to do with software, as I’m primarily involved with the physical installation. I’ve been a PM for the better part of a decade in different industries and find myself a bit stuck in the ‘crisis of meaning’ stage.
I’m good at my job, but it’s not fulfilling and although I’m senior level I still haven’t broken through the $100k ceiling. Though, I do live in a medium cost of living area.
So, what am I asking? Well, I want to shift over to a position that will allow higher earnings and decent personal growth. Maybe it’s a unicorn job to get money and fulfillment, but the search continues. Given the housing crisis and crazy prices, I just feel I need to do what I can to increase earnings. Like most people, I just want to comfortably afford a modest house.
So, to all the high earners out there, do have any general advice? Any top of mind jobs I could chase, given my PM background?
I realize how broad this post is, but I’m desperate for a thread to follow and an outside perspective. Thanks
