A colleague is leaving and I'm hoping to be promoted to their role which will involve quite a lot more work and responsibility. A new team member has been recruited in my place.
My problem is that I inadvertently found out how much the new person will be paid and it's considerably more than I'm currently on. I expect the new role to involve an increase in salary but I would never have asked for as much as what I now know the new person will be getting. Obviously I feel I should be paid more because my role will be senior.
When it comes to discussing money how do I ask for what I want without disclosing that I know what someone else is being paid?
