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 £35,000–£55,000 permanent, plus packages that often include travel or lodge allowances on major projects.
A CSCS card is standard; SMSTS or SSSTS and temporary-works training are commonly expected as you progress.
Setting-out proficiency with modern instruments, temporary works, and named major-project delivery.
