CAREERS | HAYS SALARY SURVEY activity there is in the market. Activity levels are very strong, he says, although the big question is whether private sector clients will put projects on ice because of broader concerns about the market. More than two-thirds (65%) of building services professionals would still consider moving jobs in the next 12 months, according to Hays. Uncertainties surrounding the wider economy could weigh on moves though, cautions Sutcliffe, who believes: If the market gets jittery, people will stay put. James Ford, who heads up Hoare Leas sustainability team, agrees. There needs to be a level of confidence for candidates to move and for employers to recruit. Such concerns do not appear to be holding back the 80% of building services employers that, according to the survey, are planning to recruit over the next 12 months. More than a third (39%) plan on hiring temporary or More than a third said skills shortages have had an effect on expansion while 41% said they have undermined their companies ability to deliver projects Contractors: Directors Contractors: CAD technician Contractors: Contract quantity surveyor Region Region East of England Typical Min Max salary 2019 salary 2019 salary 2019 24,500 22,000 27,000 Region East of England Typical Min Max salary 2019 salary 2019 salary 2019 57,500 50,000 73,000 East of England Typical Min Max salary 2019 salary 2019 salary 2019 42,000 33,000 52,000 London 95,000 80,000 120,000 London 41,500 30,000 50,000 London 58,500 50,000 80,000 West Midlands 61,000 60,000 70,000 West Midlands 28,500 25,000 35,000 West Midlands 44,500 45,000 55,000 East Midlands 62,500 60,000 80,000 East Midlands 28,500 25,000 30,000 East Midlands 43,000 44,000 55,000 North West 60,000 60,000 75,000 North West 29,000 25,000 32,000 North West 39,500 40,000 55,000 Northern Ireland 67,000 65,000 85,000 Northern Ireland 28,500 24,000 30,000 Northern Ireland 40,000 35,000 48,000 Scotland 55,000 50,000 65,000 Scotland 23,000 22,000 26,000 Scotland 42,000 35,000 45,000 South East 75,000 73,000 80,000 South East 35,000 33,000 40,000 South East 60,000 55,000 65,000 South West 60,000 55,000 65,000 South West 30,500 30,000 35,000 South West 46,000 45,000 50,000 Wales 55,000 55,000 65,000 Wales 29,000 27,500 32,500 Wales 43,000 40,000 45,000 Yorkshire and the Humber 54,000 48,000 62,000 Yorkshire and the Humber 25,000 23,000 28,000 Yorkshire and the Humber 37,000 32,000 42,000 North East 58,000 57,000 62,000 North East 26,000 23,000 28,000 North East 40,500 35,000 44,000 National average 63,333 59,417 75,167 National average 29,083 25,792 32,792 National average 44,667 40,750 53,000 % increase year on year: 2.7% % increase year on year: 3.5% Contractors: Estimator Contractors: Project engineer Region Region East of England Typical Min Max salary 2019 salary 2019 salary 2019 43,500 35,000 55,000 London 56,000 45,000 60,000 West Midlands 41,250 40,000 East Midlands 41,500 North West % increase year on year: 4.1% Contractors: Project manager Region East of England Typical Min Max salary 2019 salary 2019 salary 2019 38,500 32,000 48,000 East of England Typical Min Max salary 2019 salary 2019 salary 2019 47,000 40,000 57,000 London 49,000 40,000 60,000 London 68,500 60,000 75,000 50,000 West Midlands 38,000 30,000 45,000 West Midlands 46,000 40,000 55,000 30,000 45,000 East Midlands 37,000 25,000 38,000 East Midlands 48,000 35,000 50,000 41,000 38,000 45,000 North West 39,000 30,000 40,000 North West 46,500 30,000 48,000 Northern Ireland 35,000 32,000 40,000 Northern Ireland 34,000 28,000 36,000 Northern Ireland 37,000 37,000 45,000 Scotland 39,000 35,000 44,000 Scotland 38,500 28,000 40,000 Scotland 43,500 30,000 45,000 South East 59,000 45,000 62,000 South East 42,500 40,000 45,000 South East 65,000 52,500 67,000 South West 41,000 40,000 50,000 South West 37,000 35,000 42,500 South West 46,000 45,000 52,500 Wales 38,500 35,000 45,000 Wales 35,000 30,000 40,000 Wales 42,500 40,000 50,000 Yorkshire and the Humber 34,500 26,000 38,000 Yorkshire and the Humber 34,000 30,000 42,000 Yorkshire and the Humber 47,000 40,000 57,000 North East 36,000 31,000 40,000 North East 33,500 28,000 37,000 North East 44,000 40,000 50,000 National average 42,188 36,000 47,833 National average 38,000 31,333 42,792 National average 48,417 40,792 54,292 % increase year on year: 2.7% % increase year on year: 3% % increase year on year: 2.5% 4 February 2019 www.cibsejournal.com Book 1.indb 4 12/02/2019 11:37
