Hi all! Looking to pivot but unsure where to start.
Currently I am in pest control as the only routing professional at my branch, I am in charge of the entire calendar, loading routes, etc. It is a fast paced industry and I have learned a lot in my time here. I have about 10 years experience.
I am looking to pivot into a data analytics role or a management role - I think my experience would lend well to both of those.
But I am unsure how to market myself. Where would you begin?

Hi. I can't help you with a role in data analytics, but if building something of your own appeals to you, I’m part of a US-based, remote financial services company where people build their own business with training and mentorship. It can even be done part-time along side what you already do. Happy to talk through it if you’re curious.
