I have worked at my present admin job 14 years, but the last 6, been TUPE'd and had very poor (2%) payrises, which now bring me to £20.5k, a few pence above Nat min wage.
My boss asked me to do some payroll work, and train 2 new employees in H&S and I pointed out that an Admin alone should be paid £22k and with these additional tasks, closer to £25k.
He asked to see my job description as they don't have one on file when I was TUPE'd. I can't find my copy, so he has redrafted it to include a lot of things I've never been asked to do before like accounting, advertising & planning applications. I'm capable of these things, as I've worked here so long and know the business inside out, but not willing to do all this for minimum wage.
We have a meeting tomorrow to discuss, and I was going to show him job descriptions for similar role vacancies, which all start £25k. But what if he flat refuses? I really want to stay here as it's walkable, and I have a loan to pay off for the next 2 years and caring responsibilities for my elderly mum, so daren't risk switching jobs in case it doesn't work out.
My former boss may well have a copy of the original job description - he's retired and we are good friends - I just didn't want to ask him as I try not to talk work when we meet socially.
