Spent most of my career working in partnerships/account management in charities, before that: hospitality and tour management. Looking for roles using the skills I loved from that experience. Planning and organising, budget management, teamworking, liaising with multiple stakeholders/people. Looking to move more into project management now and build on that side of things, moving away from new business in charities.

Any advice on what sort of roles I should be looking for and work my way up?

How to deal with people flirting with you at work.
I’m married, and one of my coworkers flirts with me. Nothing super overt, but definitely not professional. We’re good friends and work together constantly because we’re on the same client, so I don’t want to make it awkward. Do I just do nothing and let it go? It is mostly just odd I’m not super offended, but I’m also clearly uninterested!
