Hi all,
I've recently been offered a new job with a salary of £28.5k based in central Manchester for a 36 hour week. Benefits include 30 days holiday and 10.5 additional bank/non stat days.
I currently earn just under £27k in a similar position in a more rural location for a 37.5 hour week. This is likely to increase to £29k-ish in April following a performance based review. I receive a 26 days holiday excl bank holidays.
Factoring in the additional travelling expenses I would incur getting to Manchester on a daily basis, either paying for city car parking or via public transport this is likely to cost me around £80 extra per month.
The role itself has a salary range of between £24k and £32k. They have taken into account my experience (4.5 years in quite a niche sector) and offered me £28.5k.
WIBU to try and push for a bit more, more towards £30k based on the above or would you say the additional benefits even it out a bit? I've never really done it before and I'm a bit scared that it would come across as rude.
Any help is greatly appreciated
