I just got offered to run my agency office of under 25 people alongside one other person so the owner can work on new business. I’d oversee all strategy and creative - what’s an appropriate salary? NY

I’d keep the salary and ask for equity.

You need skin in the game if you’re going to run an agency.

5% of all the teams' combined salaries? Seems reasonable... But most likely this this an ask of a favor of you to do this so you can build up your experience, skills, and resume...if they didnt mention an actual promotion then expect to have a maybe 10% bump in your current salary.

That's not how this works... if they were at that level...wouldn't be on here asking about salary figures. Correct me if I'm wrong...are you at least EVP level?

As much as you can get

25 total or 25 strategists?

When you were asked did your CEO ask you to come back to them with a compensation number? Their head might not be in that place. Especially if this a temporary ask. That said, it never hurts to ask. If this is a long term spot then I would ask for equity points on revenue and wins, a little extra in salary plus recognition of the role. Just a warning, having equity, without ownership is an unusual position. You have more authority and responsibility, but you are still an employee. If you trust who you are working for it can be a great learning experience and advance your career

Happy Wednesday everyone. I'm so excited, I have a recruiter call scheduled with @Meta for Administrative Partner position. I've been in my current employer role for 19 years and I'm nervous as heck. I haven't had to do an interview in so long. Can someone please tell me what to expect with the recruiter call? I'm assuming it will be mostly about the role, my skills and background? Do they ask salary expectations? I have no idea what to say for the salary question. Feedback appreciated. Thanks

Why asking because constantly gets feedback from everyone includes friends, family and wife that live your life and don't think much if you can afford. I don't know if i can afford it not. But I am considering one time as well as running cost. My CTC is more than 35 LPA.
