What to consider when assigning a salary to a role

If you choose to make a comparison, consideration should be paid beyond job title. For example, take into account the business proposition, any client base, specialist knowledge, time of establishment and management responsibilities. All of which will influence salary.

While salary is a key factor, it’s not the only consideration. To attract the best talent, employers should also focus on:

  • Hybrid working patterns
  • Flexible hours
  • Bonus schemes
  • Clear progression plans
  • Learning and development budgets
  • Wellness vouchers
  • Maternity and paternity pay
  • Pension contributions
  • Health insurance schemes
  • Discounted gym memberships
  • Social activities
  • A focus on employee wellbeing
  • Inclusive working environment.

Conclusion

To attract and retain top-tier talent, consider the complete package: competitive salaries and a supportive, inclusive work environment.
