Salary scales

The latest salary scales can be found below.

 

The Queen Mary salary scale for grades 1-7 is updated in accordance with  cost-of-living increases that have been collectively agreed between the Universities and Colleges Employers’ Association (UCEA) and the Trade Unions.

Each job in Queen Mary is placed on a pay grade, according to a fair and objective job evaluation process. Pay progression within each grade 1-7 is via an automatic increment each year in August until your pay reaches the top of the automatic incremental zone (the ‘yellow’ section of the grade). Any further pay progression (in the ‘purple’ section of the grade) is considered via the annual Staff Bonus Scheme.

The Queen Mary salary scales effective from 1st August 2024 can be found below:

TATF Time Allocation Model

TATF Allocation Model [DOC 22KB]

The TATF Time Allocation model, created through consultation with Schools and UCU, is designed to be a guide for the academic year in support of creating a broadly consistent experience across the population of Teaching Associates and Teaching Fellows.  It is a guide only and there is nothing here which is intended to be either definitive or contractual.  The model lists the variety of activities that Schools have indicated they engage Teaching Associates and Teaching Fellows for.  However, the existence of an activity does not in any way oblige a School to use TAs and TFs for that activity. Variations to these generic guidelines have been agreed with individual Schools, in consultation with HR, where their particular teaching model differs from the generic.  You may wish to request your School’s specific model directly from your School’s administrator.

** Dentists in training at ST4 and ST5 are on Nodal point 5 with effect from 1 April 2022
