Hi friends! I’m looking for resources to help me be successful in a “Functional Lead” role.

The role is in FinTech
I’m responsible for strategy, comms and key partnerships for a bank product. It reports through Customer Experience but touches product, Ops. marketing. It’s basically a Project Manager role but more nuanced.

Anyone out there in a role like this? Any books. videos or even best practices to share?

Have offers from Oliver Wyman and EY-Parthenon for entry level role in London.

Which is better?

Don't have any preferences at the moment in industry - Generalist atm

I’ve worked hard to get where I am in my career but must say that managing 6 people on top of a very demanding schedule and workload has been absolutely overwhelming. I know it’s a rite of passage to know how to manage teams but I’m not enjoying this at all. Would rather just manage other team members through influence. Infact I’m considering a setup like this for my next role. Anyone else in the same boat?

I’m currently looking for a new role (preferably at Google) - how do I get noticed by recruiters? It took me so long to get a current role at Snap but unfortunately I had to be let go due to a restructure.

My firm’s IT (especially system saving and file locating function) is so bad 😐😞 and they keep doing updates no one asked them for just to mess with the stuff we already got a hang of without doing anything about the issues we actually need fixed. Anyone else in a similar boat? Do you bill the client for the time it takes to fix the IT issue (or IT inefficiency generally, like time taken to find a file in a convoluted system)? Or is that supposed to be our non-billable time?

Currently working in M&A FDD at Deloitte but have been offered a similar FDD role at PwC with a bump in comp. Thoughts on differences between the practices at the two firms and factors to consider between the two roles?

Hi all. Suggestions to choose between BCG and pwc AC for similar package and similar role. BCG role is internal and not client facing.

New offer from current company to move to a new team and they’re like it’s some big promotion. Current role is key accounts + a territory, 125k base + 31k and 19k additional bonus opportunities (which I’ve been hitting consistently). New role is a pay grade jump technically and just key accounts and supporting another team for some other big accounts. Pay is 158k + 27k bonus. Total comp difference is only 3% raise. I got a 6% raise in the same role last year alone. What would you negotiate?

I have the option of switching from a lead UX designer to a principle UX designer in my current company. How will this title change be looked upon by recruiters/hiring managers on LinkedIn or at the next company I apply to? Would the pay bands be higher or lower?

So, a recruiter gave me feedback that my lack SPHR or SHRM-SCP is causing my resume to be knock out by AI and human recruiters despite my position and work history in Multinationals and being in Technology.
