I decided on a career change two years ago, resigned from my job without another one in sight, and enrolled on the Level 5 HRM qualification. I've absolutely loved the last 2 years and have learnt so much - starting as a HR Administrator, then HR Assistant, and now HR Officer, a standalone position. I am continuing to learn a lot, as its a generalist HR role, but the first HR person they've had so I'm doing a lot of project managing/overall review/policy rewriting.
I would love to be in a HR project managing role, or a specialist ER role, but I'm struggling with having a very specific plan the last years and knowing what exactly I'm meant to be doing, to not really knowing how to reach my next goals.
Is it a matter of learning as much as I can in this job over the next few years, or to give it a year or so and then try to move onto a role that has a focus on my interests? Are there any other tools I should be using to help me develop? I have no HR manager, or person of HR expertise to guide me and I feel like this is really what I need at this stage.
