Make 2 different resumes.
One that focuses on your IT strengths, and goes to companies looking for IT people.
Make the other one more general, and send it to other places. But you need to make the general one still have specifics about skills you have demonstrated.

A trick I use is I do some volunteer work in my off time. Go volenteer at your local library after work or on weekends or the like. Then you can add a wider range of work experience while you're still at your current job.
Plus you get a warm fuzzy feeling inside.

Avoid the word IT on your resume. Under the job description, focus on employee management (i f you have), project management, customer service, research, financial analysis, etc. whatever you can think of you have done that relates to the position you are applying.

I would suggest you keep the IT focus. Even if you do not want another IT job employers recognize the value inherent in that background
