I've recently become the only person in my team at work due to other members moving on to new companies. I've been dumped with all they were doing and my own stuff. So whats the best way to ak for a pay rise?

Any thoughts?

Considering we had an email the other day saying the company had doubled it's revenue in the last 12 months i dont think thats a huge issue.

I have to agree with soapy on this issue, i think your actually lucky to have a job, and unfortunately your not indespensable none of us are, still gotta be worth a try asking aint it? they prob already advertising for some other staff to replace the ones that have been luck to move on, be careful thats all i can advise

my advice, write a report on the amount of work you do, what your role now entails.. compare that to your original job role/specs and at your next supervison/appraisal discuss the extra you are now doing and ask if there is a way of rewarding you, worth a try lol

First of all truly quantify the additional work to establish if in this economic climate it is in fact extra work and that your company is not struggling and therefore is not replacing lost staff and recognises it can be done by one man. They will have done their homework re manpower so you must do same.

If you successfully manage the additional work after a few weeks that is the time to approach your employers and demonstrate to them you are capable and reliable. Then when you get your raise... slow down and ask for an assistant pointing out you would like to train a junior. this initiative would be pretty impressive to me. Which is what you want to achieve in the bigger picture.

how many were on your team to start with. Then look at how much the co is not spending on their wages and say go on just a little bit pretty please Don't take it all on your shoulders as they will only expect it in the end

If they are not automatically looking for replacements and you can easily cover their role I would wonder what exactly the lot of you have been doing for so long that I have been paying for. I would question your honesty first and be reluctant to reward. If everyone is mucking in and you make a good case for you being rewarded for that, I may do it but only if you could give me good reason and you had a new job role that reflected your new responsibilities.

Otherwise if they are recruiting to fill the posts it is a 'development opportunity ' and as your employer I have done you a favour, no discussion.
