18 months ago I gave up my career of 20 Years, I was in a very senior Position and decided to 'start again' by retraining in my dream sector. I was given a chance by a small company knowing I had no experience but a drive to learn. I've gained so many skills and understanding during my time with them, but have now secured a really fantastic senior position in a much larger scale company.
I went for the interview very aware I was inexperienced but we clicked and I've now been training for the role alongside my current job (both part time). In around a month I'll be ready to go 'solo' as such, in my new job therefore need to hand my notice in very soon to my current employer.
Problem is I feel so very bad about it, my Boss is really the most wonderful understanding, kind person and we work great together. She knows I want to move up in my role but we've spoken about realistically there not being a vacancy within her company for a long time yet. I'm 100% sure the new job is exactly what I want but I'm dreading having the conversation!
