I work at a firm in London as an assistant manager in the change management space. I was being paid lower than market and after spending some time getting some major accomplishments under my belt I negotiated with our practice head.

Promotion to manager confirmed and a rough 31% increment over my current salary

(Been working here 14 months as of present )

Why am I posting this here? If you find yourself in a position similar to mine, don’t hesitate to try your luck and negotiate!
