That figure must be for outside London, no? Since there aren't too many UK salaries here I'll add mine for London, all in GBP:

- 2006-2009 45-60k Employee, US investment bank, Analyst

- 2010-2012 300/day Freelance, full stack web dev

- 2013-2017 105k Employee, tech lead at a startup

- 2018-2019 700/day Contractor, Senior Python Developer

It's a UK wide average. Specific industries like banking will pay a markup. Also expect a 15-20% higher pay in London due to increased living costs.

Banking pays poorly compared to tech roles at private equity and hedge funds. Even losing out to Silicon Roundabout and even sleepy Whitehall at the moment, though it is all fairly volatile.

I suppose trying to work at any of the smaller FAANG offices in London might be the best you can do in the UK?
