Unhappy with pay being offered

[LizzieButton]

Hi everyone,

Happy Saturday! I have been in my job for six years and am happy there but have no progression there so have undertaken a new degree course which I'm now two years into. In the past few weeks I have done a number of job interviews and have been offered a few positions but am really trying to find something I could be happy in long term.

Today I have been offered a job which I would really like but the pay being offered is lower than I would like, they asked what I am on now and increased it by two thousand but it's more hours and responsibility. Would it be cheeky to go back looking for more as I'm not sure I would see it being worthwhile taking it unfortunately even though they did say they would also offer me training.

Thanks ladies

I would definitely tell them what figure you are looking for and then leave it with them.
What's the worse that can happen?
They say no but hen you know your worth

Of course it’s not cheeky! Negotiation is quite standard, ask for the going market rate and have stats with you to back it up. Good luck

I felt like I should have mentioned it at the interview when they told me the salary, but I guess I have nothing to lose asking now
