Has anyone been in a similar situation to mine?
I returned from maternity leave having only taken 26 weeks so legally am entitled to return to my old job. A few weeks before my return, I was told they'd be changing my role from new clients to working with existing clients. I have absolutely no desire to do this, it involves a lot more admin/desk work and less trading. It is however the same job title, pay and grade.
To slightly complicate matters, I was seconded (I applied for this) prior to my mat leave and a member of the new clients team was promoted.
Work have said they don't need two of us in new clients so I have to go to existing.
I've been offered another job which I want to take, however my existing employer will claw back enhanced mat pay if I leave within 12 months of return and it's been just over a month, so the amount I'd have to pay is quite a lot.
It seems so unfair I'm stuck in a job I don't like and don't want!
Any help or advice is really appreciated.
