Hi, I have worked with a company in a sales role for approx 10 years and have an offer to go with a much smaller company in same industry providing significantly more salary. I read through my original contract and I have a non-compete clause stating I can not work for another company competing with any services existing company offer for 12 months after leaving.
The non compete clause was stated in a fidelity agreement in addition to my original employee contract. However the copy I received was never signed by my employer. Although I would have signed a copy and returned to my employer.
Appreciate any advice on how to proceed here...the new job offer would have a massive positive impact on my earnings. (I have 4 children and am struggling with existing salary).
Many Thanks,
John.
