Hi Mumsnetters,
Would appreciate your advice on this one. Hate current job - new boss has made life a misery, so really need to leave for my own wellbeing.
Have been focusing hard on the job search and got offered a new role just over a week ago. They have been honest and explained that their jobs have to go through various sign offs and that any offer letter or contract is going to take a few weeks. This is my first choice job. They’ve been keeping in contact with me, so I do feel that everything is genuine.
Today, I got offered a role for a second job (which I would very much love to do if the first job doesn’t come off, but really want the first job). I’ve explained I have a job offer and that I need some time to consider. They've given me until next Tues to give a decision.
I have contacted Job 1 and asked if we can have the contract sorted by next week as I have another offer that I don’t want to lose. They are really trying to do this for me, but I don’t want to lose the offer for job 2.
Equally don’t want to carry on with this too long, as mindful it’s messing people around. It’s a lovely problem to have I appreciate but I’m a bit stuck. Any advice would be very welcome please.
Thanks
