I work as a video producer and want to know if there's a long term career for me.

I work for a small business and primarily produce video content for them, I also do some image editing and audio too. I get a £25k salary for this.

Overall I'm pretty content with my job, my boss is happy with my work. That said, I scope out job ads for my role to see what's out there, because I've been made redundant enough times to always need a back up plan. Most of the video producer roles I see cap off around 30k.

Had I got this job 10 years ago I would have been over the moon and happy with this salary, but now I'm in my 30s, I have dependents, and I earn a below average salary with continuously rising costs.

Those of you who are professionals, what kind of career path is out there for us? I feel like I'm missing something or maybe I need to retrain in something else on the side while I stay in this role. I'm open to hearing any thoughts or advice even if it's hard to swallow.
