How this figure was built. Based on 192 live advertised salaries for this role and region, 11 of which were the source's own estimate rather than an advertised figure.

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. MRICS chartership is the decisive lever, typically worth £8,000–£15,000 over non-chartered peers at the same level. NEC contract fluency, main-contractor delivery experience and sectors with sustained frameworks (water, energy, rail) pay strongest. Freelance/contract QS day rates run well above permanent equivalents.
