Looking for management work in Chicago Area

Veteran

Kenneth Barber Lake Forest , IL

I served 9 years as an officer in the Navy before returning to the Chicago area to work. I've held several management positions in banking and done finance and operations work for an airline in addition to owning a small business for some time. The business hasn't done as well as I'd hoped and I've decided to re-enter the corporate world. I've got broad experiences in project management, b2b business development, financial analysis and forecasting. I like analyzing business deals and developing growth strategies or understanding new markets and product placement. If anyone can offer any assistance or referrals I'd greatly appreciate it. I've just been looking in earnest about 3 weeks but haven't gotten any interviews or phone calls. I'm willing to do short term (contract) or long term employment/work.

Thank you, ladies, for the input and advice. Very, very much appreciated by both of you.

Samantha, I network quite a bit (as much as a guy with 4 young kids can) but I will certainly look into the links that you recommended.

Katherine, I sent you an email. Renewable energy is of interest to me and I have done some research in the field as well.
