What is your salary and what is your job role?

[YourBusyTurtle]

Been at my company 5 years and am earning under £35K. Albeit did start on £19k.

School "Estates Manager" of a state secondary, I still use caretaker as the description though, £62K

Name changed for obvious reasons.

Not bragging - I'm sharing in case it helps someone else who is entering their career (especially if they didn't do so well academically).

I'm a Vice President (VP) in the Marketing team of a Nasdaq listed company.

I have 30 years professional experience, starting in media sales, moving on to media planning, then into tech start-ups (in digital deliver/program management roles) and finally into the leadership teams of start-ups (Chief Communications Officer).

My basic is ~£140K
I get ~£30K shares per year
And ~£25K bonus
Company matches my contribution to 11% into pension
I also get a car allowance of £800 per month

I failed my A-Levels (nothing above a D).

I got a solid degree (2.1) but from a second-rate university.

The way I did it was by working stupidly hard from the age of 20-35 - my sole objective was to be the most useful and most valuable employee in every company I worked for. It was a fairly miserable existence, I lived on porridge and worked 12-14 hours a day. But that hard-lug set me up for more comfort and choices in my late 30's and now in my late 40's I work a normal 40-45 hour week, it's fairly high pressure, but not terrible.

Scientist 63k

I'm a senior editor and earn about 45k per year.

DH is a corporate lawyer and gets about 160k per year.

@YourBusyTurtle We have 5 children so a lot of the money goes onto them and their extra curriculars and wants/needs. We spend quite a bit on holidays and saving and extensions.

obviously not bizarre given the amount of responses/questions from others

£73k specialist healthcare professional in the NHS. 8 years PQE. 3 degrees + professional exams, Late 30s, 3 children. Very tiring 😆

What is your Job Role @YourBusyTurtle ? FWIW, I'm in IT with 30 years of experience (ugh I'm old) and am well enough paid to be in the highest marginal tax rate band in the UK, but it seems a little odd that you'd ask us to share, but not share yours.

£14k a year working 22.5 hours a week in a supermarket.

Commercial underwriter - degree educated

Midwife 8yrs post qualification with some post-grad studies but non specialist role currently ,45k full time

Solution Architect. 102k plus 25% bonus, private healthcare, car and pension contributions. I don’t have a degree and I have worked my way up through various IT roles over 20 years.

Admissions Manager in a university. Have gone up three grade bands since I started 12 years ago. Now on £38,000 ish. Top of the band is about £48k I think.

Never going to be highly paid in a uni but I still have my job unlike many in the sector. Have a good leave allowance, pretty good pension arrangement and ability to work flexibly around the kids if I need to.

Woop woop fellow BMS! £43k pro rata Band 7.
Are we paid well enough? Are we F**k.

NHS Physiotherapist in management role.
2 x degrees.
17 years experience £60k.

100% correct....I know I earn well but I'm hardly doing life saving work...pay disparity is nuts

£40k, band 6 mental health nurse in the NHS, mid pay point.

I'm still not too sure why you wanted to know random people's income they report they earn. I worked in an industry related to fraud so disclosing your job and earnings isn't something I would readily recommend tbh. Are you asking because you're deviding what industry to aim for, or what?

Provost of a private university in the US (similar to a university chancellor role in the UK, perhaps, but our institution is much smaller than a UK university) - $360,000.
Before moving more into administration, I was an academic (professor) and made around $150,000. I also made enough to pay off our mortgage from writing a commercial non-fiction book.

30 hrs a week. I’m not massaging all those hours (obvs) but half of the time is spent marketing myself, doing admin, laundry or answering phones.

@JingleBellStones

Yes I agree council pensions are so much more than charity ones. I also have an old Civil Service pension that will pay more than my charity one despite working twice as many years!

Same as you I'm looking elsewhere and motivated by the salaries on this thread. I knew I was badly paid but seeing it in black and white is depressing.

Minimum wage jobs have almost caught up to mine now so I'm not sure the stress of my job is worth it. I used to work in retail too and while it was hard work I could totally switch off between shifts.

I know right! 😂😂

I thought GPs got around £100k f/t or am I wrong ?

I’m retraining in a new career so only 24k but will go up to 32k when I finish my qualification. After my second qualification I can get a role as a registered manager and it will go up to 45k. Have a 2 year plan. 5 year plan will see me at 65k and I’ll be happy there!

Are you serious, my DD desperate to get out of the NHS? 2 degrees from ICL, post grad quals. Any chance of some detail/pointers? Thanks!

Is that to attend to animals that are tested on? What's that like?
