Business partner I don't know much about, but finding jobs: you can apply directly, bypassing recruiters. Doesn't reduce the hassle, but definitely doable.

If your resume is generalist you just need to tune it to the particular company's needs. Specialization to some extent is a marketing thing, so you just need to edit resume to highlight what's relevant to that particular company.

That's a good write-up thanks

Do you mean applying directly to jobs that are listed on job boards or company website? It is my impression that this has a low chance of success.

Or do you mean apply unsolicited?

Job boards, company website, unsolicited (for small companies, in particular, I've gotten at least one job interview that way).
