I joined the company as a buyer last May and I’m in line with a promotion to be a planner really soon. The salary they offered when I joined was actually below the market average and I have been doing planner jobs since the beginning of this year. Some other background will be bachelors degree in Supply chain + Apics certificate + a little bit over 3 YOE; and I’m in Toronto Canada. I’m just wondering how could I negotiate to get more compensation if the numbers turns to be less than expected?
