Clinical Research Associate salary in London

£45,000 – £70,000 (indicative · midpoint £57,500)

How this figure was built. No live advertised salaries back this figure yet. It is the midpoint of our curated 2026 baseline range for the role and region.

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. Clinical trial assistants and coordinators sit below the band (£28,000–£38,000), CRAs anchor it, senior CRAs and regulatory affairs managers sit at the top, and clinical project managers above (£60,000–£90,000). Sponsor companies pay more than CROs; field-based CRAs receive a car allowance.
