London market
London salaries are the highest in the UK and carry the largest cost-of-living adjustment. The London premium over the national median is roughly 15-30% depending on role. Remote-first employers have applied downward pressure on this premium, but in-office and hybrid roles in London still command a clear uplift; contract day rates run 20-35% above equivalent Manchester or Birmingham figures.
Bristol market
Bristol has a concentration of aerospace and defence contractors, creative agencies and scale-up software companies that produce a competitive tech salary market. Rates broadly match Manchester; competition for senior roles is lower because the market is smaller.
