Remote Ops vs Onsite Role: Advice Needed at My Career Crossroads

I’m an accountant who transitioned into operations management. For the past 18 months, I’ve worked remotely as an Operations Manager earning over ₦500k monthly. The role has been stable, flexible, and helped me grow professionally. Now another company offers a full-time onsite job at $350 monthly, Monday–Friday only. It seems more structured, with potential long-term growth from being physically present with a team. My concern is losing touch with finance if I stay in operations and the risk of juggling two roles affecting my health or performance. Should I: 1. Focus solely on my current remote operations role? 2. Combine both jobs if schedules allow? 3. Accept the onsite position and fully transition to a structured career path? I’d appreciate honest advice, especially from anyone who’s switched careers or managed two roles at once.
