Foreign PhD living in the UK

[Kosmos2091]

Good evening!

I am living in London. Just graduated a foreign PhD in the Socio-Political Sciences, that I started 7 years ago. Moved to the UK in 2019. I am thinking of switching my career, because it seems like the Social Sciences are not so popular. I can barely find a job in this field, and I hate teaching. I am thinking of getting into either project management or consulting. Is it worth doing a Master's just to be considered for a job in the UK? I have to mention that at the moment I am volunteering for the United Nations.

Thank you for your time,

Once in a role, you could build out a consultancy advisory background, then start working internally to use your PHD to author reports and papers etc.

It is very difficult to get a role. Do you have any ideas on how I should proceed? Thank you so much!

If going into project management prince 2 is seen as a must have.

Thank you so much! I appreciate it.
