Laboratory Scientist / Technician salary in London

£32,000 – £55,000 (indicative · midpoint £43,500)

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. Lab technicians and assistants anchor the bottom of the band, analysts and scientists the middle, and senior and principal scientists the top (£50,000–£75,000). Pharma and biotech pay most; universities and NHS labs are graded to published scales. A PhD moves a scientist up a band; postdocs are typically £37,000–£45,000.
