I am trying to write a CV but keep getting a page break between the center section and the \section*{Professional Experience}. If I remove the section* I still get a page break but just after the 'Professional Experience' wording. I have tried \nopagebreak and \filpage and neither have worked. Below is a code snippet:
\usepackage[margin=3cm]{geometry}
\usepackage{array, xcolor}
\definecolor{lightgray}{gray}{0.8}
\newcolumntype{L}{>{\raggedleft}p{0.14\textwidth}}
\newcolumntype{R}{p{0.8\textwidth}}
\newcommand \VRule{\color{lightgray}\vrule width 0.5pt}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{ragged2e}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\newenvironment{absolutelynopagebreak}
{\par\nobreak\vfil\penalty0\vfilneg
\vtop\bgroup}
{\par\xdef\tpd{\the\prevdepth}\egroup
\prevdepth=\tpd}
\begin{document}
\pagenumbering{gobble}

&{Receipt Bank is an accounting/bookkeeping firm that uses machine learning to extract information from receipts. I was working to segment their user base using exploratory data analysis and, specifically, unsupervised machine learning techniques such as k-means clustering. This involved using python with packages like: sklearn, numpy, pandas and scipy. Also developed skills in SQL using both Looker and the SQLalchemy library in python. The results were insights that I presented to the business which aided them in understanding how their users interact with the service (via web or mobile apps). For this I was awarded a monthly salary of £1800 per month. \vspace{5mm}}\\```

Many thanks!
The reason for your pagebreak could be that right after \section*{Professional Experience} you start a table which might need an entire page (so the "Professional Experience" does not fit), but there seems to be code missing, so I cannot tell.
