I've said that to my wife but she doesn't think it would happen. I keep saying if I look now, while I have a good job, I could use what I have now as leverage for getting more at the new job.
That's exactly how it works. Be good at what you do, have a good reason why you want to move on (ie one the new employer doesn't see themselves suffering from, and one that doesn't make you look bad!) and you're almost in the head-hunted category.

Interesting what David said - I usually find that employers are more flexible on salary than holidays.John
I guess it depends how flexible they are. Iit does vary a lot, and flexibility says a lot about how good they're going to be to work for.
