I am 25 F. Working in Aerospace & Military Defence Co as a Technical Buyer. I have 2 years expierence within administrative roles, 1 year in procurement. I got this role after interviewing for one below (purchasing assistant) the salary for that role was 21-24K. I was already on 24K so they offered me the same salary - however, the buyer role came up and they offered me this instead but same salary -24K. I have a pay review in April, I want to ask for 28K, is this too much?

That's roughly a 17% raise. Do you know where your currently salary is relative to the mid point of that position? I know some companies will determine pay based on a percentage of midpoint using a multiplier.

Example: if the midpoint is 25k then your current multiplier is 0.96 ($24,000 / $25,000). If you're asking for 28k, that'd bump the multiplier up to 1.12 ($28,000 / $25,000) which seems like a lot unless your performance review was stellar and / or you came into the role with a lower multiplier. Again, this opinion depends on the current midpoint (assuming your company uses that methodology).

Let me know if I'm misinterpreting your question.

Hi

So I would normally agree with this logic but I’ve put out on a band 2 role, on a band 3 wage. So I think the 17% raise sounds like a lot but most people would start on 26k and get a pay rise on the 3 month pay rise. I hope that makes sense? I’m also expecting it not to be 28k but I feel like I should ask for more to get what I want

Company considers the woman a riskier bet due to possibility she’ll take maternity leave — and considers the man less risky for his ineligibility to take as much leave. 🤷
