So, I've been at my currently employer for 11 years now and I started off as an agency worker, I am currently a shift team leader and the only other routes for progression are warehouse team leader and warehouse manager. Both roles are currently occupied and won't be available for many years.
My boss tells me how good I amij comparison to the other shift team leader etc, I feel he just says this to massage people's egos. Anyway, I want to do more, want to earn more etc. I don't think this is going to happen here, I work shifts so one week 6-2 and the other 2-10, however for the past year I've been doing 6-2 and 8-8 as they needed me and I also enjoyed the overtime money plus I'm not a fan of working till 10pm or wasn't until doing 8-8 for a year. That's now coming to a end and I suggested doing 12-8 as they hadn't had me here till 10 for a year so it seems I'm not really needed and could do other things on a 12-8 but they flatly refused and said stick to your shifts.
Anyway, my question is how do you know when the right time to leave a job for a new job is or even if the job your going to will be better then what your at now? My current job offers 30 days holiday plus bank holidays, pays 8% into my pension, full sick pay, decent money plus overtime when available. Last year I earned 35k, my basic is around 25k.
Job I applied for and have an interview for is 30k, 4 day weeks from Jan-Sept then 5 day weeks after that as its their busy period. They offer 20 days holiday, don't mention sick pay but do mention just a pension.
I think because I've been at my current employer for 11 years and had zero issues or zero issues relating to job stability, would it be wise to jump ship or to progress, is that what I need to do......
This job interview might be a load of nonsense but it tells me I can get interviews elsewhere.
