James Reed

I'm your host, James Reid, chairman and CEO of Reid, a family-run recruitment and philanthropy company.

Welcome to All About Business with me, James Reid, the podcast that covers everything about business, management, and leadership.

Every episode, I sit down with different guests who have bootstrapped companies, masterminded investment models, or built a business empire.

They're leaders in their field, and they're here to give you top insights and actionable advice so that you can apply their ideas to your own career or business venture.

Welcome to All About Business Shorts, where we share practical advice you will actually use.

In this episode, we're focusing on something that many people want, but few approach well.

How to get a good pay rise in your current role.

I'm joined by Connor Scully, one of our top REIT consultants who advises professionals daily on pay conversations, including when to ask, how to prepare, and what actually works.

We'll talk about proving your value, becoming hard to replace and how to handle the conversation without putting your job at risk.

If asking for a raise feels awkward, this episode is for you.

So today on All About Business in our spring short season, I'm really excited.

excited about this conversation.

I'm delighted to welcome Connor Scully into the studio, and we're going to be talking about how to get a pay rise.

How about that?

And Connor, I should say, is a senior executive consultant at Reed Specialist Recruitment.

He specializes in property and construction, a very busy space, and he works out of our famous Berry Street office.

So, Connor, thank you for coming down the road to see me here this morning.

You've obviously had many conversations with people about this subject.

It's something that I get asked about a lot.

So am I as a worker adding significant value?
