This page helps you sanity-check salary offers in Manchester using UK PAYE assumptions. The key figure for practical planning is monthly net pay after income tax, National Insurance, student loan and pension effects, not gross salary alone.
For Manchester, common decisions are shaped by strong tech and services hiring with varied salary bands by district. That makes scenario testing important before committing to role changes or relocation. The salary table below is server-rendered with default assumptions so it is indexable and easy to compare.
Important: UK income tax does not vary by city. Only tax region, tax code and deduction settings change the calculation.

Income tax region drives this difference. NI remains UK-wide for most employees, but Scottish income tax bands can shift net pay at the same gross salary.
No, not by city. Tax depends on UK region and payroll settings. Two people in different English cities can have identical tax treatment if salary and deductions are the same.
Compare net monthly and annual take-home using the same assumptions for student loan, pension, tax code and NI category. This avoids gross-salary bias.
Loan plan, pension percentage, salary sacrifice and tax code can all shift monthly net. Salary alone is not enough for a reliable comparison.
The salary table uses no pension and no student loan for baseline comparability. Use the full calculator to model your own deductions.
Re-check when salary changes, loan status changes, or tax-year thresholds update. Small changes can produce noticeable monthly differences.
