Another Salary Expectation Question!

Hi All,

It’s me again, so I found a job and an offer for Assistant Project Manager position is in the process. We are still discussing salary packages.

What salary range should I be expecting at my level? I'm a British guy from UK.

Factors to consider:
- 3 years of experience in construction as design lead, position offered is Assistant Project Manager
- UK construction company, with office in KL
- Now have a high standard of living (London)
- Current salary is about £3k, pretty normal for my level here in UK (don’t know if this is relevant)
- Not married, no children, but don’t really go out partying. Drink once in a while
- No mortgage to pay, but I do want to save up for future home in UK
- Might share accommodation with someone

Don't mind compromising on standard of living/lower salary package in Malaysia as I'm pretty damn keen on the move.
