What salary should I ask for if these are my NetSuite skills? These are the skills I bring to the table for my company: • I have three years of experience using NetSuite (I've been with the company for over five years in total, but we only implemented NS three years ago). ◦ The first year of experience was a functional user as an inventory manager and demand planner. ◦ The most recent two years of experience have been as the company's primary admin. • One year ago, I got the SuiteFoundation certification. A few weeks ago I got the Admin certification. • I don't currently know how to write code, but now that I have the Admin certification, I am starting to learn Javascript so that I can eventually write SuiteScript. • Other value adding skills I bring to the company include: ◦ I am effectively the primary scrum master for our Kanban board where we manage our work. • I keep track of all the small but important things that often slip through the cracks if no one pays attention to them, such as: ▪︎ Making sure that employees that leave the company have their login access revoked in all systems. ◦ Keeping track of billing deadlines and system update dates in different platforms that we use. ◦ I am the NetSuite technical resource for our WMS implementation that we are working on now (we are implementing Deposco). ◦ I have been highly involved in the process of testing new product SKUs and getting them live on our website. ◦ I am often the go-to person for resolving data discrepancies or Excel questions. • My company has about 40 NetSuite users. • My company doesn't offer bonuses or commission. • My company is located in the Cincinnati area. What salary should I ask for 2024? (Raises / merit increases are given every January). If you were my manager, given the factors listed above, what salary do you think I should get?

what is your official title?

My current title is Business Analyst, but I don’t think that accurately captures my role anymore. That was a title that my company gave to me when I first entered my NetSuite admin duties due to a more experienced employee leaving.

I have to say your approach and effort are both admirable. I would also add a number of hours for each task you spend during the month and document what others get paid performing this particular task; then try to find comparative role(s) (LinkedIn, Indeed, etc.) and see where they stand in terms of $$. Also, consider your company’s size and what pay to people. In other words, manufacturing/inventory companies tend to pay less than software business. Aim for the stars and good luck!

This is from zip recruiter. just to echo what Karina said, you could look around at a few other sites as well to get a good idea. These are the average salaries. 52k to 66k is the 25th percentile 120k - 132k is the 75th This would be looking at full time netsuite admins though. Likely with experience implementing/configuring netsuite with around 5 years expirience. Just to give you an idea
adding suitescript to your toolbelt will help move that number up as well.

Have you seen the Anderson Frank salary guides?

You could also speak with various agencies to see what is available on the market. I'm sure they'd give you an (albeit inflated), evaluation of what they can feasibly get you, but at least it'd give you a ball park figure from people putting someone such as yourself in to roles.

You have to factor in inflation as well and what your salary buys you today: https://www.bls.gov/data/inflation_calculator.htm

Nathan's comment sums it up best. I was going to say a floor of 90k, and then other factors determine the rest.
