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 £34,000–£56,000 permanent, with energy and defence at the top of the range.
Typically £32,000–£45,000 depending on sector and shift pattern, with overtime common.
Oil and gas, renewables, defence and pharmaceutical plant consistently pay above general manufacturing.
