1. Introduction

This report has been prepared by Incomes Data Research (IDR) and, as requested, it provides

market salary data for the following role(s):

• Senior Network & Security Engineer

2. Market salary data

This section presents the market salary data. We aim to provide a minimum of three sources

of information for each job to enable ‘triangulation’ of the results, and thereby provide the

widest possible assessment of the market for this role.

2.1. Market data

The tables in the following sections provide the aggregate market salary for a full-time Senior

Network & Security Engineer.

2.1.1. Official earnings data

The data provided below is based on the Government’s latest Annual Survey of Hours and

Earnings (ASHE), for April 2019. This survey, conducted by the Office for National Statistics,

provides a snapshot of earnings each April and is based on a 1% sample of National Insurance

numbers. ASHE is considered a reliable source of official earnings data.

The following table details the median and average UK gross annual pay for full time employees

in the closest-matched occupational category. It also provides information on the annual

percentage change which can be an indicator of labour market pressures.

2.1.2. NHS data

In this section we provide information on the salary range for the pay band likely to cover

comparator jobs in the NHS. The NHS, with 1.2m staff, is the largest employer in the UK and as

such plays a key role in influencing the market for many non-medical roles, particularly in

education, given the links between parts of higher education and the NHS.

Senior Network & Security Engineers in the NHS are typically employed on either Band 7 or

band 8a and the current salary range for Band 7 is between £38,890 and £44,503 and for band

8a between £45,753 and £51,688 a year outside of London and high-cost areas in the South

East/South.

Roles based in high-cost areas qualify for the following supplements:

• Inner London – 20% of basic salary, subject to a minimum payment of £4,474 and a

maximum payment of £6,892;

• Outer London – 15% of basic salary, subject to a minimum payment of £3,786 and a

maximum payment of £4,824;

1 Gross pay excludes bonuses but includes basic pay, shift premium payments, overtime pay, paid

leave, maternity pay, sick pay and other pay. 2 Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) codes are a coding system used to classify occupations. A

four-digit SOC indicates the closest occupational match. Three digits cover a slightly broader job

group, while two and one-digit codes are broader still.

• Fringe – 5% of basic salary, subject to a minimum payment of £1,037 and a maximum

payment of £1,793.

2.1.3. IDR data

The following tables contain data from IDR Pay Benchmarker, our online database of salary

information. This data has been collected by IDR directly from employers through surveys and
