What is your 5 year plan?
(If you don't mind me asking).

Good question

Year 1: Finish paying off the mortgage and have kids
Year 2: Get a house in the country and a holiday property on the coast
Year 3: Get MBA
Year 4: Get MBA
Year 5: Start up a business/tech consultancy

Or something like that.......

Do you seriously want to be director of a large blue chip? Sounds good I know, but do you really know what it involves? This is not the same as being director of a start up, or even a medium size 250+ employee company. You are entering another world. Do some serious research. You might earn £100K a year contracting for doing practically f all. You might earn £150K a year as director of a blue chip (+ bonus). But the legal responsibilities and pressures are another world.

I can always go back to Contracting, but I do want to push myself, yes.

I want to see where it takes me.

HOWEVER.....I hear what you are saying. If this was a give up your life kind of gig I would never take it, but it is not that kind of company. So I am thinking it over.......

I don't know yet which is what is stopping me.

I really do have some thinking to do.

This was not in the 5 year plan.

Take it, then never darken our doors again.

As Rocky would say, Go For It.

Clearly its a step in the direction in which you want to go in.

As long as the money and prospects meet expectations then whats stopping you?

[BlackenedBiker]

Just been offered a permie job at the place where I am working

"Good" package
MBA paid for
MS certification paid for

Management role

Massive blue chip

Surprisingly I am tempted. This could be my ticket into directorship and business level exec, which is where I want to be, as well as Contracting being sold to a girl called Helena Handbasket.

What does the board think
