Salary and Role Alignment
Amber. The advertised salary of £30,000 to £34,000 appears somewhat modest relative to the role's autonomous Level 6 responsibilities, Olympic World Class Programme population, mandatory UKSCA ASCC accreditation, scientific-degree requirement and overseas travel. Under the IUSCA IQF Role Classification & Salary Alignment methodology, this results in an Amber rating. The full benefits package and actual travel and working hours would influence the final assessment.
