On small screens, swipe the table to compare all pay points.
No matching occupation. Try a broader job title, a main duty or the four-digit occupation code.
Annual figures are in pounds, rounded to whole pounds. “Not published” means the source does not provide that point; it does not mean zero pay. The quality label describes sampling precision of the median estimate, not the suitability of the occupation match or an offer. Figures may include bonuses, commission, overtime and allowances.
When is a vacancy report worth paying for?
Use the £49 report when you need to propose a salary range, cost the hire and explain the decision to the person approving it. The table is useful for initial research. The report brings the vacancy result, supported hiring options, costs and supporting evidence into one record.

£49 report · one-off
Propose and cost the hire
A recommended range, up to three hiring positions where supported, employer NI and pension estimates, illustrative take-home figures, and a report with sources and limitations.
PayPrecise uses ONS occupation and regional earnings with an industry regular-pay update. The report shows how those sources are used for the inputs you enter. You can share the online report and download its PDF within 90 days; save the PDF during that period to keep your copy.
The ordinary range is not separately adjusted for this vacancy's experience or seniority. Annual earnings can include variable pay. Check the duties, intended package and internal pay before choosing the final offer.
What do lower, middle and upper pay mean?
They describe where salaries sit in an occupation's pay distribution. They do not tell you what a junior, experienced or senior employee should earn.
| Point | How to read it | What it does not establish |
|---|---|---|
| Lower quartile, P25 | About a quarter of employee jobs earn below this point | An entry-level salary or a legal minimum |
| Median, P50 | The middle employee job when pay is ordered from low to high | The correct offer for every vacancy |
| Upper quartile, P75 | About three quarters earn below this point | A senior-role salary or the highest available pay |
Occupation groups mix different employers, regions, responsibilities and employees. Their national distribution is wider than the pay evidence for a precisely defined vacancy may be. A role requiring a particular qualification or management scope needs a closer match.
Why might your vacancy's salary differ?
Location, responsibilities, working hours, pay components and the evidence date can change the comparison. Document each difference instead of applying a blanket uplift to every role.
- Work region: a UK figure combines locations. Local evidence matters, and one London premium should not be applied to every occupation.
- Actual work: check decisions, team size, specialist skills and accountability rather than relying on the title.
- Working pattern: full-time annual earnings should not be compared directly with a part-time annual offer or contractor day rate.
- Pay basis: gross earnings can include pay beyond basic salary. A bonus-heavy occupation needs particular care.
- Time: distinguish the April 2025 reference from the date this guide was reviewed. An industry pay update is context, not proof of a role-specific increase.
- Internal pay: compare similar work in your business and investigate unexplained differences before setting an offer.
If a structured pay framework applies, confirm the relevant band or pay point and use that framework. A broad occupation median should not replace an applicable agreed scale.
How should an employer use this salary guide?
Use it to establish a reference and identify the checks your vacancy needs. The salary decision still requires an appropriate role match, a realistic offer range and a budget.
- Write the vacancy's main duties and required capabilities.
- Find the closest occupation and note its source edition and pay definition.
- Cross-check location, current hiring conditions and any relevant official pay framework.
- Choose a salary range and explain what supports different starting points.
- Check employer costs and comparable internal roles, then record the approval.
The step-by-step salary benchmarking guide explains the process with an employer-cost example and a finance approval-note structure. If you are choosing a service, compare UK salary benchmarking tools and companies.
Where do the figures come from?
The table uses PayPrecise's public summary of ONS ASHE Table 14, 2025 provisional. It selects the published full-time annual pay points for UK employee jobs, using four-digit SOC 2020 occupations.
The earnings reference is April 2025. The public summary was generated on 26 July 2026. This page was prepared on 30 September 2026. Those are different dates; publishing an employer guide in 2026 does not turn the source into a live salary survey.
Annual earnings include more than basic pay. The ONS annual-pay measure covers employees who have held their job for at least a year, and annual pay can be affected by absence. It is a reference for established employee earnings, rather than a survey of new-hire offers. Self-employed people and contractors are outside this reference.
Missing or suppressed points remain marked “Not published”. Quality labels such as “Precise” describe sampling precision of the median estimate. They do not establish that a national occupation is a precise match for your vacancy or that its median is the right offer.
ONS has suppressed affected 2025 provisional annual estimates for police officers, sergeant and below, following a correction. This guide keeps those values unpublished. A suppressed point should not be filled with a guessed figure.
You can inspect the public JSON summary or download the CSV summary. The original ONS dataset is available under the Open Government Licence v3.0. The employer guidance and salary-reference table share source data; the guidance here explains its use in a hiring decision.
Employer salary guide questions
Are these recommended salaries to put in a job advert?
No. They are national gross annual earnings points. Check the role, region, hours, basic-pay definition and data date before deciding what to advertise. Read the salary ranges in job adverts guide for practical presentation.
Can I use the lower quartile for a junior hire?
The lower quartile is not an experience band. It may combine jobs with different duties, regions and employers. Match the vacancy's actual scope and requirements before choosing a lower market position.
Does the table include employer National Insurance or pension?
No. The table shows employee gross annual earnings. Employer NI, pension and other business costs are additional and depend on the employment and pension arrangements.
What does the paid salary benchmark add?
The free table provides national occupation earnings. The free preview uses your vacancy inputs to show a matched role, starting benchmark and evidence quality. The £49 report adds a recommended range, up to three hiring positions where supported, employer-cost estimates, illustrative take-home figures and a record of sources and assumptions. Online access and PDF downloads last 90 days; save the PDF within that period. The ordinary range is not separately adjusted for experience or seniority.
