Pay Raise? My company recently bought out a larger company.

Question

I was the office manager for 12, now i'll be the office manager for 60+, multiple locations including out of state, and I'm going to be required to do a bit more travel for work. Is the bump in responsibilities mean I'm due for a bump in pay as well?

You are obviously taking on a lot more responsibilities, managing more people and more locations. I have seen a lot of company buyouts. Now is the time to negotiate a salary increase!

Maybe discuss with your manager how much travel the employer anticipates for you. If you think you deserve a raise from this, maybe negotiate a premium pay scale for travel hours. If the employer isn’t willing to do so, ask for comp time for travel-related work that exceeds your standard hour workweek.
