It’s great to be on the platform. I was the Country Human Resource Director for Baobab for 60 months till I resigned in December to relocate with my family to the Uk this January.
I have applied to over 200 companies and it feels really weird back in the employment market because you are in a new country
I look forward to an opportunity to share my skills and learn the ropes here.
I also hope to get a remote role
Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any opportunities
A big source of friction for non-UK HR practitioners seeking roles in the UK is the lack of familiarity with our legal landscape. The CIPD runs an extremely thorough (albeit not cheap) course in Employment Law that I would highly recommend as the starting place for anyone seeking to make the transition into UK-focused HR without having to start from square one.
Although it can be hard, remember that you have an advantage over many of the rest of us when it comes to roles with an international focus.
