My prospective employer has recently downgraded my title from a senior manager to manager. I had a discussion with my prospective manager to negotiate with HR to keep the title unchanged or to offer me a similar senior role equivalent to senior manager.

I would like to follow up with him now. Is it common and professional to say the following? If no, please suggest a better alternative that works in this context.

"Hope you reached an agreement/ reached a satisfactory solution with HR and they don't mind offering me a similar senior role"
 
I hope that you have reached [STRIKE]an agreement/ reached[/STRIKE] a satisfactory solution with HR and that they don't mind offering me a similar senior role.
Try that.
 
I don't find "that they don't mind offering me" natural or professional. It's not a case of whether they mind doing so or not. It's a case of whether or not there is a similar senior role vacant at the moment.

Avoid wordiness. Punctuate the ends of all sentences.

Let us know what happens!
