Your annual pay review

Have you had your annual appraisal or review?

Often firms will time these at the end or start of the financial year.

This month: Are you suffering from broken promises?

“You can’t always get what you want” as the song goes, but if you have found yourself asking once again for the same thing that you did last year then perhaps it is time for a change.

There is nothing so frustrating as having the same conversation year after year, whether it is about progression opportunities, development of a niche area, or salary increases. We have a good overview of the market and the salaries on offer and whilst everything is very much dependent on experience and the demands of the market, we can offer some insight into what might be available elsewhere. We find people are more likely to become frustrated by broken promises than almost anything else in the workplace. We always try to ensure when you move to a new role that promises are carried through and if plans are set for the future they are realistic and written in to your contract where possible.

Feel free to get in touch over this long bank holiday weekend and either myself or my colleague Ali can give you some insight into the market and the opportunities that it can offer you. If you’d like to keep an eye on opportunities at your leisure, please download our app available on both Apple and Android format by clicking the link below https://www.clararoseconsultancy.co.uk/download-our-app/
