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.
Indicatively £44,000–£72,000 for permanent roles; contract day rates are typically higher in cash terms.
Multi-vendor capability across Siemens, Rockwell/Allen-Bradley and Mitsubishi, plus SCADA and functional safety.
Both are strong; contract often pays more in cash but permanent offers stability and benefits. The right choice depends on IR35 status and your circumstances.
