Hi never posted on a forum like this so please bear with me if I get a bit long-winded 
I work for a large UK owned IT firm in a management capacity. The role has two specific sets of duties which were detailed in my contract. Due to success and company focus I was asked if I would concentrate on just one of the roles and help recruit for the other part of my job.
After this I was sent what was described a rough Job Description and that the commission plan would follow. This was two months ago and have never received. I did not worry too much as I didn't actually think this was a job offer and I certainly never accepted it.
I did ask for clarification about the role as I didn't feel it explained what resource, time scales, funding etc or how my performance would be measured etc. Again I received no response.
In the meantime my company has made a job offer to another person for a job which is half of my current role. They have told my team and my suppliers I am moving into this new role which I havent been given a contract for.
Now the first part is probably sour grapes on my part : The person who has been recruited externally for half of my job has been offered approx 60% more basic than I earn but I guess thats down to me to negotiate.
The second part is what I'm mainly worried about. Can they not offer me a new contract, me not accept the contract they havent offered and still hire someone into part of my role whilst I'm still employed to do it? Am I being forced out or am I just being a bit delicate about this.
I feel that I now have to accept the role because my previous role has effectively been given to someone else.
During my 30 months at the firm I have been given a payrise, received no form of written or verbal warning over my performance and recognised for winning a Strategic FTSE100 account with a new service that I developed? This win prompted them asking me to do the new role?
Any advice sincerely appreciated.
