# SALARY REVIEW REQUEST

Date: 10 January 2030

Parties: Amelia Wright and Northbank Digital Limited

## 1. Applicant and subject

I ask Northbank Digital Limited, 14 Wellington Street, Leeds LS1 4DL, to review my salary as Senior UX Designer. I joined on £46,000 gross per year on 3 April 2027 and report to Creative Director Ben Cole.

## 2. Scope of request

Since my last review I have led the redesign of the Northbank client portal, managed two designers, introduced an accessibility testing process and presented directly to three retained clients. The portal launch reduced support tickets by 18% in the first quarter.

## 3. Facts and reasons

My employment contract provides for an annual review but does not guarantee an increase. I request consideration of £54,000 gross per year from 1 April 2030, or a written plan with milestones and a review date if the full adjustment cannot be approved now.

## 4. Information and adjustments

I attach the launch metrics, client feedback, role description and three salary surveys for comparable senior UX roles in Leeds. I recognise that Northbank must consider budget, internal equity, performance ratings and the value of total benefits, including my 5% pension contribution.

## 5. Response method

I would welcome a meeting with Ben and HR within 21 days. I am open to discussing a phased increase, a one-off payment, additional development budget or a revised title, provided the arrangement is clear and does not replace the contractual salary review.

## 6. Deadline and next steps

This request is made in good faith and is not a grievance, discrimination allegation or resignation notice. I reserve all statutory and contractual rights and ask Northbank to keep my performance information confidential except for the managers involved.

## 7. Signature and records

Please acknowledge this request and confirm the decision timetable. I will continue my duties and targets while the review is considered; Amelia signs this request on 10 January 2030 and keeps a copy.
