The Worklife Bowl

Regional Sales Manager

For those who do the E-MESH , I couldn’t find a slot on this year E-Mesh 30 hrs core and I am left only with the option of doing HAZWOPER 40 hrs . I am a 50 years old woman chemical engineer so do you think this course will be a touch one for me?

Career Pivot

works at Cultivated meat (unverified)

I have worked as a Bioprocess Lead across 3 cultivated meat companies. I have scaled processes from the bench to 2000L across multiple different iPSC cell lines. I carried out R&D for cost reduction, productivity improvement. I’ve carried out a TEA and led R&D strategy. I’ve also carried out the tech transfer of IP during an acquisition. I’d like to transition into consulting or carrying out technical due diligence. How can I make this transition? without being self employed
