I manage a small elderly care home in a large organisation and returned to work on Monday. My new(ish) line manager asked to consult with me regarding transfering to manage a different care home, in roughly the same area, but with more residents and staff and a lot more problems. There's an agency manager there at present.
She says he thinks i'm the strongest manager and so wants me to transfer there as it's difficult to manage. The reason i'm posting is to ask whether legally I have the option to refuse?
I might have already given the impression I would transfer, but after visiting the home and seeing how much work there is to do compared to my old job, and how much hassle it will be i'm thinking I was too hasty to agree so soon and i'd be better off settling back into work in my old home where I know things like the back of my hand etc. I'm feeling de-motivated and not really up to the job of fixing this home if you know what I mean. Do I still have the right to change my mind?
For additional info, a replacement was found externally for my maternity cover for a set period, her contract was supposed to finish on Monday but I presume will be extended now before they advertise the position. I have already seen the info on Directgov website but i'd like the opinions of the HR bods who will have dealt with similar situations etc.
