Methodology: medians reconcile live advertised UK salaries for this role and region; 25th–75th percentiles are shown only where at least 5 live salaried listings back them. They are measured or omitted, never interpolated. Rows marked indicative are anchored to our curated 2026 baseline ranges until enough live data accrues. Listings advertising an implausible annual figure (a mislabelled hourly or daily rate) are excluded rather than converted, because converting one means guessing the hours behind it.

Market view. Programme and service managers anchor the band, heads of department sit in the middle and directors and chief executives above it (£70,000–£150,000 at large charities, £45,000–£60,000 at small ones). Income size, not location, sets the number.
