I’m used to working on senior-level contracts, usually on FTCs, day rates or freelance. I’ve been in my current role since August and genuinely love the organisation and my team. However, leadership has been inexperienced and the role hasn’t been properly resourced, which has limited how effective it can be.
Realistically, I’ll probably stay until the summer when it ends. I can either keep my head down and deliver the role to an acceptable standard, or I can be open with the new senior leader (who becomes my line manager in January) about the changes I believe are needed, based on my experience, to make the role work properly.
The question is whether it’s worth raising this at all.
