Judging by my salary (3+years experience, just taken final ACCA exams, earning £19k), working on the South Coast, probably not! If I qualify it goes up to £24.5k; now THAT is underpaid!!

Interesting that you think £33k plus management bonus is ‘grossly’ under paying when one year on your firm are only likely to offer you £24.5k.

Good luck with those exams. I can assure you it will all be worth it in the end.

It was ‘romeo’ who mentioned ‘grossly underpaying’, not me.

Thanks, I’ll need it for the resits!

Ah, yes.. sorry!

I am pretty sure that it is under the salary surveys which I have read.  I haven’t read one for a while since I passed my about 2007 when I was part-qualified and changing jobs. 

My personal salary expectations in London were a newly qualified should earn c£50k.  In Surrey, the salary can’t be less than £40k???
