Just a bit of a rant here guys. On mobile. I changed jobs last year to work for an Ombudsman Service/deposit scheme (I'm based in scotland). It was better pay, work from home hybrid and seemed like a good step because I was bored and drained of what I was doing and I wanted a challenge and to lead a team again.
