I feel around 100k should be perfect. Just know that if it's a big agency one of those WPP type huge then they are not give you a promotion for a long time or a raise. So whatever you negotiate just know that ur gonna have to make it work till the time you leave the place.

Realistically you’re looking at a 15% raise, so around 65K.

I’d ask for 75k. Settle for 70k.

OP, I don’t a suggestion on a fair salary bump. I just want to say congratulations on the promotion and upcoming raise!

Yeah, you don’t have any room for negotiation really. That’s why it’s phrased as “giving” you a promotion. You take what you’re given.
If you don’t like it (and with an internal raise you likely won’t) wait a few months and then take your new title and salary to find your real raise elsewhere.

When I was hired in as a junior (big agency, nyc WPP) I got 60 out of the gate less than a year out of college. Maybe ask for 85-90 because promotions are rare at large agencies

To be clear, you absolutely deserve a higher number. You just won’t get it staying in the same spot

Same agency unfortunately you won't get a fair bump. A fair bump would be 75-80 but you'll more likely get 70

likehelpful

Can you really negotiate a promotion? It’s usually just moving you into the salary range for the new role. Ask for what you want, but I agree you’ll probably end up at around 65k

Agree on 65. I think 70+ is dreaming

Lol thanks guys! This was very helpful!

I was recently promoted, and now part of my team report to me. I'm now able to see their pay rates and I am honestly so disappointed in the company. Especially since we just gave annual raises in Feb, plus we can all see where the money is going and it's not to the employees. Makes me sick
