about the event

The international development landscape is shifting, leaving many dedicated professionals suddenly facing an unexpected career transition. If you’re wondering what’s next, you’re not alone—and we’re here to help. Even if that’s just to pause, reflect, and listen.

Join Head Global for a candid and solutions-focused discussion on navigating career pivots in the wake of USAID’s…restructuring. With experience working with thousands of international development professionals across 65 countries, we’ve helped individuals successfully transition into new roles—whether staying in development, moving to adjacent sectors, or exploring entirely new opportunities.

This panel brings together industry experts, hiring managers, and professionals who have successfully reinvented their careers to discuss:
🔹 Transferable skills and new career pathways
🔹 What employers inside and outside of development are looking for
🔹 Practical job search strategies for an evolving market
🔹 How to take control of your next steps with confidence

Your expertise is valuable, your skills are in demand, and there are opportunities ahead. Let’s explore them together.
