IMO nowhere near enough for what I do for them esp having worked for them for 12 years - partner doing same job for a different organisation which provides same services is on about £23k having been there for about a year, I don't begrudge some of that because he does have skills which I don't, but it's still a huge difference and I got turned down when I asked for a raise.

Have been keeping an eye out for other work, but it's scary considering something new after so many years of security and knowing my job inside out! :eek:

It looks like this thread may be pretty much dead now, but I felt the need to brag about my news a little, knowing that I'd posted this 18 months ago.

I've just accepted a new post for another organisation in the same line of work as my current employers. Part time doing the same as what I already do & part time at a lower rate of pay as a secretary. Despite the partial step down in terms of my role, I will be earning an additional £2k in pay per year, I only lose 1 days holiday to what I've accrued after 13 years with my current employer and they have better sick pay arrangements than my current employer.

The downside is that I will now have a 30 min drive to work and the extra money will go on fuel, but it's definitely a positive move for me, especially as the old company is advertising my post with a top salary £1.5k higher than they paid me "dependant on experience"... apparently my 13 years experience with them wasn't enough! :mad:
