Thanks for the vote of confidence Anita, much appreciated.

Tom – yeah, I’d tend to agree, if no payrise offered with accepting a promotion, not much is going to happen by staying put.

Doesn’t necessarily mean this contract role is the right one to jump on. How many other opportunities have you interviewed for?? Usually for a contract they want a decision pretty quickly. What’s your longer term goal – stay contracting through your own company ( big tax advantages in UK at least ) or do you see yourself happier back in permanent employment long term??

Moving companies sounds a good thing – just make sure you jump to the best opportunity you can, not necessarily just the first one offered as an escape.

Happy to help more where I can.
