You don't need to leave your current job to find the next one.* Network.* In the worst case if your boss learns of your interest he'll fire you but if you have your ducks in order - no problem.

Contact the head of the department, or key prof, from your old U.* Tell him/her what you are doing and of your interest in making a change, perhaps teaching.* Most will require an advanced degree but with your background you can get on staff in a Finance Department (assuming they have some $ in their budget) while taking care of that detail.* They LOVE to have someone with real world experience.

Some Us are better than others at tending to the employment needs of their graduates.* You are they type of graudate they want to brag about.* Make an appointment and tell them that you are looking for a change, you don't want your cv on the net but if they hear of something suitable ...*
