Hi
I have managed a small non - government service for several yrs. Since I started my role has expanded along with the service. I am currently paid under an award but I am at the highest level. My wage has not been reviewed for 3yrs & I would like this to occur. I have recently read that a lot of small services (if budget allows of course) pay their Managers above award wages basically because the manager s responsible for all facets of the organisaton including but not limited to H.R; payroll; OH&S; training &/or facilitating; etc
I am unsure how to go about this. I have no problem discussing the expansion of my role & giving examples but do not know how to go further. Any contribution appreciated.

The simplest way to get what you want is to ask for it. Yet, it would also be prudent to have other opportunities somewhat prepared before doing so.
