How to deal with an impossible position
About six months ago, my team hired a new person, Penny, to help with my workload. She’s my age and we have the same salary; I’ve been at the company for several years. We’re both at the same level, technically, but I trained her and essentially became her manager without the authority. I suspect the only reason I’m not actually a manager is because it would require giving me a raise.
Your position is impossible because you can’t be responsible for a co-worker who you don’t have any authority over.
But that option relies on Penny agreeing to do things that way, and I’d rather see you get the authority you need instead of having to rely on Penny’s good will. The second, and better, option is to talk to your boss, explain what’s been happening, and ask if she’d be willing to formalize the authority that people seem to expect you to have. Since you’re functioning as Penny’s unofficial manager anyway, it’s not a huge stretch to propose making that official and asking for a raise.
