Moving to a standalone HR role from a big corporate HR team...

Hi All!

Just wondering whether anyone has experienced going from a corporate company with a big HR team to a stand alone HR role incorporating everything HR, Recruitment and L&D. Whether there is anything to consider/weigh up and any challenges you've faced making the jump?

Thank you

    I'm one of the few it looks like that's regretting taking that leap I really wish I could say i was loving the move.
    I moved from corporate to a stand alone HR around 3 months ago. And I echo the fact that having no sounding board to vent to is proving difficult when I just need to check I'm not going crazy with advice I've given.
    I've found a very very long list with the SMT where they are breaching nearly every day without a care in the world and when its been raised with the MD that the SMT are doing something they shouldn't be its simply brushed under the carpet.But unfortunately the SMT will quite happily bring the storm to me when its already hit the fan.
    However this isn't to say its not the right thing for you to do.. but I think I may have just been sold a dream which maybe is a nightmare! haha!

    Good Luck I hope everything works out for you :)
