I’m considering a few options at the moment in term of future employment. I have nearly 20yrs experience and have been in my current job working for a multinational professional services firm as a town planner for 6 yrs – a good stint.
A decent offer with a competitor is expected to come forward in the next couple of weeks, if i decide to go with it, it will not go down well at current work at all well.
Any tips on how to handle this tactically? Will they ask me to leave straight away and does that mean ‘straight away’ that minute? can i raise the issues of gardening leave? I’d love a few weeks off! How do i best manage existing clients that have brought work to the company because they want to use my services? Do i suggest they consider transferring contract to my new company?
