I am in a senior role at work (clerical) and for a number of reasons I am very unhappy. The company itself is great and I'm treated with respect, but the role and the working conditions are no longer compatible with my personality and the older I get the more introverted I am becoming so this will only get worse. It's not that I can't do the job, I'm often praised. It's just making me unhappy and I can't go on faking it like this. So I'm looking for a quieter role with a smaller company. I'm willing to take a pay cut if it means a fresh start and a better environment for my mental health. I'm not massively ambitious, I just want to be happy. The thing is, how can I say all this to a potential new employer without looking under confident and weak? Should I be honest or just hide the fact I'll be stepping down and use a relocation excuse or something?
