Employees normally progress by one spinal point each year until they reach the highest point in the grade.

The University is not using Points:

1 to 8,28,30,32 or 48.

*For those on Spinal point 11 we have temporarily increased the hourly rate to £12.19 until such time that spinal point 11 is greater than £12.19.

Grade 9 Pay Spine

Detailed Grade 9 Pay Spine below.

Spinal points at grade 9 start at 100 and continue beyond spinal point 140 in £1,300 increments up to spinal point 180 which is £175,000.

At Grade 9, staff will not receive automatic increments. Progression on the Grade 9 pay spine will consider performance/contribution as part of the SLRS outcomes.
