24, 40+, IT, Level 6, 6"

My circumstances were vastly different at 22 to they are now at 24 - so I think 22-25 is a misleading category.
For a graduate - a LOT can happen in these years.

Go on then....

41-50, Other, (Company Director), 60k-80k+, level 3 education. Hours: officially 37, but can be as much as 90hrs a week, average about 50 I expect.

Mr^B · 8 Jan 2011 at 22:12

You need more brackets after the £40k. £40k within a few years of graduating if you work in the right sector is going to be pretty much a given.

I'm also Office Based, IT AND management.

I don't think this is really going to give you the information you need, you need to engage individuals who have been in the same situation as you and find out how they did out of it.

edit: for the record:

36-40, £100000+, IT/Management, Level 6, London

Age: 22-25
Salary: £25,000 - £30,000
Occupation: Accountant
Education: Currently Level 6 - working on Chartered Accountant & Chartered Tax Advisor
Location: Reading

I included location as the exact same position in the company but in the North (Liverpool/Leeds/Manchester/Newcastle) earns you £7,000 a year less money.

It is actually interesting purely for the randomness, no doubt it will result in people being jealous.

Why wouldnt you? Sharing a little information about your self isnt going to do any harm is it?

Stuff · 8 Jan 2011 at 22:31

19-21, £15001-£20000, Retail, Level 4. Getting there!

Mr^B · 8 Jan 2011 at 22:31

Is that base salary, OTE (for sales) or base salary + bonus?

What I earn varies from year to year as the profits/bonus pool expands/contracts. Some years I will earn £100k+ others (especially since 2008) will be considerably less than that.

Edit, infact im not sure if i want people to know this
