Hello, 

I have seen the CIPD courses mentioned on a few sites, with some having good deals around black Friday and Christmas. 

Currently I work in Global Mobility tax role within the big 4 accounting firms at Manager level, and have a CTA qualification. In my first year I had a mixed employer role, including share scheme, payroll, Global mobility and employment taxes. I have 8 years experience. 

My typical client contacts are HR directors or head of reward. I wondered whether doing the CIPD qualification would help me transition into a in-house role as a reward manager in the medium term (3/5 years). Global mobility tax roles are becoming more frequent for in house roles in large corporations, but in general are limited as most are outsourced to providers, and usually under a HR directors remit. 

I am also a people mentor to three people, and have some experience with performance discussions, but no extensive experience with HR as a whole.

Has anyone done anything similar? And would anyone have a suggestion of a level to enter? It would likely be through self funding.
