I have posted this in the "Job Network" forum but also wanted to drop this here on the Austin page as well:
I'm now almost two months since being laid off at my last job, and trying to maintain a positive attitude, but looking for any kind of help in finding a new role.
I got back to Austin a little over a year ago (worked in Louisiana for 3 years) but I'm from the area and need to be here for family purposes. My most recent experience was being a Project Manager for a contract manufacturer here in Austin. I was primarily managing projects that serviced the semiconductor industry, as well as food/beverage and some oil/gas type projects. I was promoted from Account Manager to this position. Unfortunately, the company had some major setbacks with their biggest account and was going through a rough period and had to begin doing rounds of layoffs. After my biggest projects were completed, I was let go.
My experience has primarily been with a manufacturing type companies. At all the places I have been, I have worked cross-functionally (engineering, production, sales, logistics, supply chain) and have always been customer facing as well as developing relationships with vendors. My degree was in Industrial Distribution and my background has been Project Management, Sales/Account Management, and Supply Chain.
I'm in search of a company that puts a strong emphasis on growth and stability, as well as doing things the right way. I greatly appreciate any help during this time. The Aggie Network has always been a great help.
Please send me a message or respond on this thread if you know of anybody looking to hire good people.
Thank you!
