The highest-paid jobs in London

What London was advertising in October 2026, and what it paid.

We listed 704 senior roles in London from 95 employers in October 2026. 125 of them stated a salary (17.8%). These are the 5 highest-paid of them.

How these 5 were chosen

The highest-paid permanent roles in the city that stated a salary clearing £100,000, on the day this was captured, with at most one role per employer. Not “the most interesting”, which is not a claim anyone could check. A role advertised at an hourly or daily rate is ranked on a full-time-year equivalent so it can be compared with a salary; the advertised figure is always the one shown, never the conversion. Roles with no stated pay cannot appear here at all, which is a limitation of the list rather than of the roles.

This page records October 2026. 2 of these 5 roles have since come off the board — filled, expired or withdrawn — and are marked below. For what is open now, see the live board.

What changed since September 2026

The two lists were captured 17 days apart, so this is a comparison of two snapshots rather than of two whole months. Over that gap:

  • · 4 of these 5 roles were not in the September 2026 list.
  • · 2 of the 5 roles in that list are still advertised.
  • · We listed 751 senior roles in London then, against 704 now.

A role leaving the list has not necessarily been filled — it may have expired or been withdrawn, and we cannot tell which. And a role being new to the list does not mean it is newly advertised: it may have been on the board in September 2026 and simply outranked by something that has since closed. What the turnover does show is that a ranking like this describes a week or two, not a season, which is why these pages are dated and kept rather than updated.

What the list does not show

Only 125 of 704 roles stated a salary, so this ranks a minority and says nothing about the rest. The pattern is the one we find everywhere: public-sector and clinical employers publish pay and most private ones do not, so a list ordered by advertised salary tends to fill up with healthcare wherever it is drawn.
