Hi
Also posted in Employment Issues but decided to try here as well.
Just wondered if anyone has any experience of this and are willing to share?
Basically, I work at place X and have done, very successfully for 3 years. I am having my first baby in Dec so will be on maternity leave.
Now, I quite like my job at X and have always got on well with my manager but there are going to be a lot of changes to things generally and some of these will affect me. Also, I do feel I've reached a ceiling at X so to speak.
With these things in mind I'm thinking of using my time away to effectively 're-evaluate' things and probably look for another job for when I'm ready to return to work. I understand I will have to repay enhanced maternity pay if I do find another post and have accounted for this.
Has anyone else done this? How did you find it? I feel it would be good to start a new role at the end of my leave instead of returning to my current one. It's just all a bit scary!! Any tips/experiences appreciated! TIA
