salary advice – internal move to Data Science team.

Hi, I joined my company in London in Nov 2021 as Media Automation Exec (£32k), got promoted last year to Manager (£41k). I’ve also been doing a Data Science & ML masters,

Now considering a Mid Developer role in the Data Science team – encouraged by the team director. I’ve already been building tools solo, and the role aligns well with my interests. However I'm unsure about the salary range for this role.
Would asking for £60–70k be realistic?

I completely understand your point. Many professionals face similar questions when considering internal moves or promotions, especially when transitioning into roles like Data Science. They ended up working with a job search specialist who really guided them through evaluating salary expectations, positioning their experience and skills, and ultimately helped them negotiate compensation that matched their value.

Mid developer? Does not seem like a very flattering title. Ask for a high number then let them reveal their number
