Exploring Internal Opportunities for a Design Role at My Hospitality Company

I'm currently working as a kitchen assistant at a large hospitality company that owns various establishments. While I appreciate the company, I'm feeling really burnt out with my current role. I hold a BA in Illustration and I'm about to graduate with an MA in Digital Design, but finding jobs related to my field has been incredibly disheartening. I've been considering approaching upper management to discuss the possibility of switching to an internal role, perhaps as a junior designer, digital marketer, or content creator. I plan to showcase some of my recent work, like rebranding concepts, menu designs, and social media content that I've created during my MA program. I’m curious if anyone has successfully made a similar move within their company or if I would be overstepping by asking. I don't want to embarrass myself, but I believe I could bring valuable ideas to the table. I've heard of others in my company being given new roles when circumstances changed, which gives me some hope. However, I'm also aware that if I express my desire to move on, the gossip around the office could spread quickly, making things uncomfortable.
