Currently in the US but interviewing for a UK-based firm and role. The comp level they are throwing around is £250k TC. Is this reasonable for a Director-level role with 12 YOE?

My comparator would be wait 18-24mo to become a consulting partner - in the US that starts at $450k/£325k.

For the purposes of this question, assume I’m optimizing for initial comp, not long term potential, and not livability, Intl experience, WLB, CoL etc.

Thanks!

That is an incredible salary for the UK.

This sounds like an excellent offer for the UK. However given your stated goal is comp maximisation, you're almost certainly going to earn more in the US.

UK comp is always less than US for the same role in the same company. I know this first hand for Google, BCG, Amazon, Facebook, McKinsey, etc.

From what I’ve heard, directors are at 120-180 base

Sounds more like Associate partner salary to me

If optimising for Comp - stay in the states
