Bee, this sounds like a very impulsive decision, similar to which you have often regretted later in the past. There will never be a perfect job and it's not realistic to expect every day to be great. As you say it pays well and is not something you will be doing for months and years so why not continue while it's available?

Hey Bee, my point is merely about is it sometimes worth to go through short term discomfort for potential long term benefit? You seem to have done so well in this assignement and really got on with your boss and was like 95% of the way to providing great end-to-end service. So could this have been a chance to e.g. get a great reference for your LinkedIn page? Or you may be totally spot on about the lady not being up to scratch with the work and so chances are they would call you back for more support or more permanent role as they've seen you in action? But now with an abrupt ending I presume it is not likely. The recruiter may also be hesitant about recommending you for similar oppportunities if they think you will drop out without tying up loose ends.

To your frustration about someone not qualified picking up the role, unfortunately the market is changing very rapidly and employees are simply expected to cover more areas and learn things quickly on the job as the expectation is that AI accelerates everyone's ability to do so - Sage itself are rolling out a lot of AI tooling which should (in theory) make it much easier manage. Chances are the employer cannot afford a full time role and so are bringing in someone who will do multiple responsibilities and this happens to be one that they are not yet qualified in. It's a tough a market so I totally feel your pain.

The only reason I commented was because you have written about impulsive decision making often steering you off track so I thought it might be worth taking a pause. You know your situation best so don't feel like you need everyone to understand or agree with what you are doing!
