Which roles should I target given a background economics-finance (two masters) ??

Hello guys, anyone up for some suggestions?

Briefly, I have got already a master's in economics and - without considering past internship experiences - I have also got one year long work experience, in the research department of a leading Italian Investment Bank (but I did not work in the IBD) and as a Business Consultant for Commercial Banks in a leading German Consultancy. Both experiences in Milan.

Modules during the master's in finance at Lancaster:
- quant methods
- financial reporting
- derivatives I + derivatives II
- corp finance I + corp finance II
- fixed income markets
- risk management for commercial banks

Extracurricular experiences:
analyst in the investment fund of the uni --> I got some skills in ratio analysis and more in equity analysis

...having said that, I ask you which roles do you suggest me to target?
As the virus has been spreading and the world has found itself in lockdown, I am a bit confused on how I should move on the job market and that is why I am asking for an advice!

Thanks to all of you willing to share their opinions with me!

PS: you might want to share some tips on which skills to develop in order to be more appealing in the job market... well I would be more than glad to hear them!
