I am an entrepreneur with over 16 years of experience in the silver jewellery sector. Unfortunately, I had to quit for personal reasons. I have a management degree from a top institute in Mumbai and I would like to understand the career opportunities available to me with my skill set.
Hi Manish. There are always opportunities available for entrepreneurs and the management degree from top institute acts like an icing on the cake. Here are a few areas you can consider - 1. If you are keen on continuing in the jewelry sector, there are multiple players like Giva, Caratlane and Bluestone which will be more than happy to leverage your experience 2. In recent days there has been a boom in D2C startups and you can consider these as well. Check out companies like Mensa Brands, Mamaearth, etx 3. If your previous venture had a key differentiation - such a product or ops or supply chain, you can play on that strength and apply accordingly. I hope you find this helpful.
Hello Manish. As you already have an entrepreneurial experience that too for about 16 years, it would really help you further in management. Management is as simple as it seems but can get complex when you have to do a plethora of things all at once; that’s when your management skills are challenged in a real sense. There are several types of management jobs, your degree in management will surely help you to take them up: Administrative Services Managers. Advertising, Promotions, and Marketing Managers. Architectural and Engineering Managers. Compensation and Benefits Managers. Computer and Information Systems Managers. Engineering Managers. Farmers, Ranchers and Other Agricultural Managers. Financial Managers.
Given that you have an experience of 16 years as an entrepreneur and have a degree in management to supplement your practical knowledge with conceptualisation, there are multiple career opportunities for you to opt from. Being a sales executive is definitely one of the viable career options for you. A sales executive is someone who is responsible for the entire sales funnel in the company. He is one of the vital forces in the company and plays a huge role in the survival and development of the organisation. As a sales executive you will have to interact with customers, convert the cold leads into hot leads, close the deal and get business for the company. It is a challenging job but is exciting and rewarding. Given your experience in the jewellery industry, interacting with customers and negotiating with them wouldn't be a hurdle for you. You can gather more information on the skills required for a sales job and then decide whether to go ahead with it or not. Apart from different career options in Sales, Business Development is another field that you can explore. The Business development industry has seen a huge growth in the past 10 years, all credits to the introduction of the startup culture in our country. As a Business development executive you will be responsible for the expansion of your organisation in the market. You will also look into the expansion in foreign markets if necessary and work towards building a brand image for your company. This role requires one to have the knowledge of the intricacies of business and hence someone like you can ace this task. You can also join a company in the capacity of a Business Analyst, Risk manager, Sales Account manager and put your experience in entrepreneurship to use by recognising the external threats and opportunities for the company.
