Moving from Dubai to London

Veera

Hello All,

I've recently completed my Master's degree in HRM with a Level 7 CIPD qualification. 

All of my HR experience of ten years is based out of the UAE, but I made sure that my degree was from a renowned university in the UK so that when the time came to move I would still be connected in some way. We're considering moving to the UK in the next year or two and I'm wondering if my global experience would give me an edge, and allow me to move laterally into a role rather than taking a step down because I haven't got any UK experience. I'd really appreciate your feedback on a) would it be possible to move laterally, and b) what more can I do to ensure I have a good enough chance to get offers more suited to my level of experience (I'm a Senior HR Advisor for a multi-national healthcare organization).

Thank you!

Veera

  • Congratulations on completing your Master's degree! That is a massive achievement.

    My own thought is that if you were to move into another global organisation, the fact that your HR experience is based out of UAE shouldn't cause too much of a problem, particularly as you are CIPD qualified.

    Can I just check that you have the right to work in the UK without needing sponsorship? If you don't, that is likely to be your biggest difficulty as it is unlikely that HR roles would meet our resident labour market test
