Hey everyone,
I’m a payroll specialist in London, I work in a good company and the pays quite good around the 50k mark. I’ve come across an Opportunity for Quality Engineer role. A back story I’ve always wanted to get into tech but never did because the first role I did was a junior payroll and ever since then I’ve become a specialist and moved over to some companies. Now in my companies I’ve become valuable to the stakeholders where I’m the go to person to get sh*t done. Just because I like challenges and have been competitive from beginning . I’m currently 25 years and I’n a serious thought problem where there’s this QA role that I’ve been accepted in my own company and my managers manager promising they’ll get me a role with HR Tech since I want to get into tech . Told me everything about giving good comp and me directly reporting to the director seems all amazing but not guaranteed.
On the other hand with the QA role bear in mind I’m quite new to this field have no clue if I’ll excel at it. I also need to move into tech quite quick as it’s kind of a criteria so that I can sponsor my long standing partner to stay with me in London.
What would you advise or do in my case? Is getting into QA an option worth or should I just build into HR TECH from payroll??
Appreciate your answers!!
