Please note that we must list salaries. Icon’s 2022 Conservation Salaries Survey identified that the average salaries across the conservation profession are:

• Early career: £26,346

• Mid-career: £32,333

• Senior Professionals: £37,925

Icon believes these should be the minimum salary expectations. We would strongly advocate for fair levels of remuneration that are in line with those expected by a highly skilled and technical profession. If job adverts are placed on the Icon website with salary levels that fall below these benchmarks, we will place a banner on the advert. The banner will read: “The salary for this role falls below the average pay for a position at this level as identified by Icon’s 2022 Conservation Salaries Survey”.

Based on Icon's conservation salary benchmarking, we recommend these to be the starting point for salaries: Early career - £28,491; Mid-career - £35,000; Senior Professionals - £46,125. Find out more about Icon's conservation salary benchmarking here.
