Transferring to different departments...

Post by Craig_Fairbrass »

I recently moved to collections (3 months ago) from delivery but now a job in the mail centre has came up. Can I apply for this or can you not move so soon after moving?

AFAIK when you take up a new duty you have to stay in it for at least 12 months before you can swap to another duty

Got to admit, after 11 years on delivery, collections is a doddle, only reason I even thought about the mail centre job were the hours were better.

Yeah I suspected this may be the case. Thanks.
