I’m job hunting in Los Angeles, looking at a variety of titles (HRBP, Sr. HRBP, Manager, Sr. Manager, Director). I have 8 YOE and my SHRM-SCP. I reached my report limit on payscale.com, so I used a variety of other sites to price the roles (BLS, salary.com, Glassdoor, LinkedIn, Robert Half). The problem I’m having is the huge inconsistencies between sources (there are $40k differences between some of the identified medians). (Continued…)

It would be a change in lifestyle for sure from the US but that’s still a very high salary. My parents earnt much less combined and I still grew up comfortable as a child with 3 siblings. I’d consider looking at living in commuter towns within Surrey, Kent, Hertfordshire or outskirts of London - great state schools, houses rather than apartments and when we do start going back even 2-3 days per week the commute will be very manageable.
I’d play around Zoopla and see if you can get anything closer.
My base is £85k and I live in Zone 4 with four kids (sole earner).
Biggest lifestyle change is not having a car, but I think we're healthier as a result.
If you want to live in London, that salary is adequate.
Ofsted reports are decent, also use GCSE / A level grade results as a guideline for school performance academically
Is this in audit? £87k is great if you are in audit; usually a SM1 starts around £76, so pretty good. Also, where in UK? if that is your total family income for London, it is not worth it. London is super expensive, would need atleast £100K for a family to live comfortably
As a senior manager, I don’t even make that. Am in London. It’s a great salary for manager, which usually caps in the 70-75 range but averages 60-68. Bearing in mind you don’t have healthcare costs etc here it’s doable in London.
I hear you, but 86 is still above average for UK family earnings. I’m not saying it’s a lot, but it’s comfortable enough. Curious to know what your 6k outgoings are - we’re a family of 3 and don’t spend that. And insurance is just part of your PAYE so no one who lives here considers NI as part of their outgoings, it’s just tax...
This is a pretty decent salary for manager in the UK!
That’s a great salary for Deloitte manager. I know some on less than 60k...
Total comp sounds like there’s variable pay involved. It’s in-line with what D pays in the UK, but are you OK taking the likely pay cut from the US? That’s the biggest hurdle for me moving the fam to the UK. I feel like we would have a hard time if we made our US salary in the UK since COL is so much higher in London.
Are you currently an M or SC in the US? I know a few folks in similar situations who have negotiated a promotion with the transfer.
Depending on your skills we’re hiring in 🇦🇺,🇨🇦, and 🇳🇿
No it's not for Audit. Its for Consulting and yes, it's for London and I am the sole earner at the moment as we have 2 yr old kiddo and 6 yrs old.. I am trying to get to SM in next couple years hopefully will reach 98-100k band and our kids will also grow and my wife will eventually join the workforce.. We'll get there eventually!
I am currently a Manager here in US and got more than 14 years as Total Experience..
I know it’s been a while but i happened upon this post. OP I’m assuming the base was £80k? Did you wind up negotiating? I’m working on a transfer and hoping for £85k
