It’s not actually that much when you are on your own with no one to split the bills with

Sorry for the mega late reply! I'm newish to tattle and don't come on often. Yes you're right, you do really need to be in a coding role in order to sit the ACC exam. In our trust you are a trainee coder for 2 years on a band 2 and then you start revising for your exam which takes around 6 months. If you pass your exam you automatically go up to a band 5. All trusts seem to be slightly different in the way they do things but you usually cannot get to a band 5 level and above without passing your exam. I passed my exam in 2013 It's a really interesting job and I do enjoy it which is good xThanks for asking, was about to do the same The coding roles in the NHS seem very internally-driven, like start off on a band 2 in a department and train for a coding role over several years? They mention qualifications but you appear to have to work for the NHS to access them or is that not the case? @Lou681
Ahh, thank you for getting back to me I thought it would be like that. Glad you enjoy your work! It does seem really interesting and I can understand why they’d want you to have a lot of experience beforehand due to the nature of the role. I just wish I’d done coding roles when I worked for the NHS I’m in a similar field but couldn’t drop down to band 2 salary to start again.Sorry for the mega late reply!

I know its really hard isn't it once you get used to a certain amount of money? I'm quite lucky that I kinda fell into the role I was only on a band 2 when I got the job and went to a band 3 and then a band 5 after my exam. There's other fields I would love to go into but, like you, I couldn't take the pay cut and now I also do contract work any new job would have to cover what I earn doing that too. Bit disheartening at times but like i said I do enjoy my job mostly haha xxAhh, thank you for getting back to me I thought it would be like that. Glad you enjoy your work!

18k for that is quite low!I'm a manager at one of the restaurants my husband has a stake in. Hes in a director role/head chef. I do 36 hours a week for 18k. I get small pay rises every year or so but this is because I do so much more than my "job". I feel underpaid but as my husband is on good wage of 47k feel I cant moan (well I do moan to him )
Yep its low. I do what I like though hours and shifts wise. Get a few hundred quid extra a year in bonus and a few hundred in tips. So probably 19. Funny cos then men in my position earn a few k more, and are tit.18k for that is quite low!
