I was made redundant a month ago but have a new opportunity at a local company. I'm moving from 20 years in sales (software, insurance and high end retail) to a local office for a massive multinational.

The role is as an Account Executive in a niche area of insurance.

It's a very stable job and I have 25 years until retirement so I'm looking for a "second half" career. Just concerned it's too niche and I could get boxed in.

Just based on being unemployed and then offered the job it was a no-brainer. They'll pay for Cii. Walk to work and WFH. Above median payment with good pension and other benefits. Brill.

Just wondered if anyone had any similar experience, am I worrying too much? Will skills be transferrable?
