Legal Accounts Salary Survey 2022 23-Feb-22It's that time of year again! Our 2022 Legal Accounts Salary Survey is now live, and we again need to ask for your help in compiling the all-important data. 2021 proved to be an unprecendented year for hiring, with record levels of demand across the UK as markets recovered from the pandemic, amid widespread shortages of active jobseekers - a supply and demand headache which saw starting salaries climbing steeply to compete in the 'war for talent'. We’re anticipating this year’s survey results will also show a significant improvement in the prevalence of pay increases across the sector, with only 37% of respondents last year having had one during the 12 months prior, down from 69% the previous year. We’re also very interested to assess to what extent remote working has remained in place across the sector post-lockdowns, and whether the shift to hybrid working arrangements is now the norm and not just a temporary measure. As always, the survey is 100% confidential and you don’t need to enter any contact details nor identifiable information. It only takes 2 minutes to complete with a simple online questionnaire and every response helps to increase the accuracy of the results, so your contribution is very much appreciated! As an added incentive, participants in this year’s survey also have the option to enter a prize draw to win a magnum of champagne. If you find that it’s difficult to source accurate salary data within your region, you can play a big role in changing that by taking part and asking your colleagues and peers at neighbouring firms to join in this confidential survey, sharing the link below.
