I have been struggling

For me, I do technical NIST CSF assessments, vuln scans, PMO, and process implementation. These are commodity skills that almost every single cyber consulting practice sells. If you don’t carve out a niche - then it becomes hard to find a new role. For example, someone with in-depth, niche CMMC experience will have less issues finding a new role than a traditional cyber GRC consultant that does NIST and program management work.
