Police, Fire & Prison Officer salary in North West

£30,000 – £47,000 (indicative · midpoint £38,500)

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. Constables start around £30,000 rising to £48,000 at the top of scale (plus £7,000+ London weighting and allowances); firefighters £30,000–£40,000 competent; prison officers £32,000–£40,000 with market supplements; armed-forces privates start around £26,000. Progression follows rank and time served rather than negotiation.
