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. Team assistants anchor the bottom of the band, PAs the middle and executive assistants to C-suite the top; financial services, law firms and private households pay most. Discretion, diary and travel management and board-pack preparation are the core asks.
