Advertised pay
| Pay basis | Roles | Typical range (10th–90th percentile) | Median lower bound | Median upper bound |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Annual | 5 | Not shown: based on 5 adverts | – | – |
| Not stated or "Negotiable" | 38 | – | – | – |
Pay is as listed in each advert (NHS Jobs salary field, Reed and Adzuna stated salaries; Adzuna estimates excluded). The typical range runs from the 10th percentile of advertised lower bounds to the 90th percentile of advertised upper bounds, so a few unusual adverts do not set it. Adverts quoting pro-rata, part-time or sessional pay are counted separately and left out of the range and medians.
Where fewer than 10 adverts state pay on a basis, we do not show a range or medians: too few adverts to say what is typical. Each advert gives its own pay.
How to read this
The register lists organisations licensed to sponsor workers. It does not say which jobs they will sponsor. Each advert and employer is the source for that. GOV.UK publishes the visa rules: https://www.gov.uk/browse/visas-immigration/work-visas
