I work for a large healthcare trust and am hoping to be offered a new job in a neighbouring trust which would put me in a training role rather than a clinical role.
It's possible that the new job could be a secondment as the new trust would be happy with that but I'm not sure how to approach my current manager and suggest the temporary change.
I find my manager quite unapproachable (although she seems fair and does a very demanding job) but I'm not sure I could 'sell' a secondment's value to her.
For background I'm in a busy clinical role, we are understaffed as a department but advertising for more qualified staff. I have only been in this job for 7 months but have been doing the job for 6 years elsewhere. I really hope to make the sideways move into training/development longer term but like my current department and would very much like having a 'fall back' just in case.
Has anyone organised a secondment in the NHS and how did you broach it with your manager?
