Well as the title suggests i'm considering whether or not to move on from my current position. I work at a small accounting firm in Australia with only about 8 staff (5 accountants & 3 admin staff). Normally there would be around 10 staff consisting of around 7 accountants and 3 admin staff.
I'm basically at the point where for the moment i've gone as high up in the business as i can, with 2 senior accountants working above me (although both are elderly neither are looking to retire anytime soon). I love working with the people i work with, however had inteded to discuss with my boss during my next performance review that if i wasn't provided with some more advanced work that i would be looking to move on.
My problem is this i don't really want to drop my boss in it by leaving him so short staffed and have just found out that another staff member (the office manager) has resigned after 14 years with the firm he can i'll afford to lose another long term staff member (i've been there for 6 years from the graduate stage).
So my question is do i still have the conversation with him, or given the current staffing predicament hold off until a more suitable time, as i dont want to be seen to be taking advantage of the situation.
your opinions would be most welcome...
