Changing of Job on Global Talent Visa

Hello
I am on Global talent Visa endorsed by the Royal Academy of Engineering. My family has got the Global talent dependent visas. Now, after four months I want to change my job as I have got a better job in the same area of expertise for which I was endorsed. Would this be an issue? is there any chance my current employer can ask the Royal Academy to cancel my endorsement as I'm leaving the job? I am just curious because I want to go for the new job.
Please guide.

There is no issue with changing jobs under the GT route.
Some change jobs shortly after being endorsed and the GTV granted, sometimes switching to work in roles completely different to their endorsed field, or being self-employed, and they don't face any problems in future applications. There are some posts here on this forum with cases like this.
The host institution - or the employer - has no influence in the decisions of the endorsing bodies.

Is there any issue if there is a gap in employment while being on GTV? Like a few weeks.

There is no issue. There is no specific employment requirement under this route

Your current employer does not have the authority to revoke your approval as this is a decision made by the academy itself. However, if your current employer tries to contact the academy to revoke your approval, this may cause negative attitudes from the academy and cause problems for your current employer. You should inform your current employer of your decision to leave, expressing gratitude for the opportunity and experience gained in this job.
