How does £60,000 compare?

£60,000 sits about 30% above the ONS ASHE 2024 median for an NHS Band 7 (Advanced Practitioner) (£46,148). At this level you are likely either above the 75th percentile or carrying a meaningful seniority allowance, regional weighting or shift uplift built into the headline figure.

It is also above the UK full-time national median of £37,430 (ONS ASHE 2024).

For context, the 25th percentile for this role sits at £46,148 and the 75th at £52,809 (ONS ASHE 2024).
