So I work in the education field and got hired for a position I thought I would be prepared for (planning student activities over summer and throughout the school year). I want to point out that I am trained and educated in education, and no other fields. Well once I had the job it went okay for the first year or so but this year I am being asked to do marketing. Previously the only marketing I had to do was put up a few flyers. Now I am being asked to build out events, know marketing terms, and how to raise engagement in the program.
I feel I am not cut out for this job as the focus has become more marketing than education. I feel overwhelmed and out of my depth and every move I make seems to be the wrong one. I am considering leaving this job and transferring to a different role more suited to my skillset but until this happens, I would like to keep my paycheck as long as possible. I was pushed to take the position because I am creative and hardworking, but this doesn't replace marketing knowledge/ experience.
I need advice from anyone- what do I do?
