I need help trying to figure out actual salary!

I want to apply for an admin job in the NHS. It's 30 hours a week over 4 days. The salary is between £12,577 and £15,523 pro rata. How in the world do I figure out how much I would actually take home?

£838.46 per month before tax for the lowest rate. That's where you start off if you are new to the NHS.

Woah. That's more than what I get full time.

To work out what you would receive, you need to know how many hours a week count as full-time. Then you divide the annual salary by that number of hours and multiply by 30. That gives you the annual salary. Divide by 12 for a month or 52 for a week.

Your take-home pay depends on your tax code and other earnings in the year to date.

In fact the standard hours in the NHS are 37.5 a week and debsy has used that figure to give you the gross amount based on the £12,577 annual amount. It is most likely they would start you at that point on the pay band - unless you already had NHS employment.

That works out to between £719 - £854 take home per month, based on a 30hr week.

Less any pension & union subs.

Thanks (both of you!)

Looks like I'd be taking home a bit more than what I am on at the moment. Which is cool. I hope I get an interview, I can do the job and I'd love to work 30 hours and make a bit more than I do working 42.

Hate it when jobs are advertised as pro-rata as companies class full time different, for me it's 35hrs, for a past company it was 39hrs
