So a post based on "who you know". Most grad jobs in London will top out at £30k. http://www.technojobs.co.uk/search.phtml/graduate-developer/searchfield/locationLondon/radius/salary http://www.technojobs.co.uk/search.phtml/graduate-developer/... Those that are higher are not real "junior" jobs - there's one that advertises "up to £50k", but then asks for 3-5 years experience. 5 years good experience puts you at the top end of mid-level. There are a few finance jobs, that are looking for junior quant. developers. Yes, they are advertising above £30k. But they don't make up the bulk of the jobs on offer. (And yes, I have a lot of anecdotal evidence too, for outside and inside London, having spent my early years working for a company with offices in Bath/Bristol/Reading, and the obligatory London "HQ").
