High TC jobs in London

What jobs can pay above $500k TC in London? I am open to ML-related roles in Tech or Finance.

I don’t want to do an MBA after this age haha

Are you already in London or considering moving there?

Tech doesn’t pay much in London sadly. I know both fb and G pay considerably less for the same profiles/levels. Don’t know about finance.

Any guess on the % pay cut? What would be the equivalent of $500k London position in Bay Area?

Facebook bTId74 Jan 6, 2020

Around 40% cut at fb. Given that costs aren’t really cheaper there, It’s really not worth it.

Do you think the UK will be good after brexit?

Don't think there'll be any difference after Brexit

If you read Blind you might think banks in London give 400k+ GBP jobs like hot cakes. Truth is in my years living here I have seen exactly one such job offering "up to" 300k. You just need to come to terms with the fact that Europe doesn't pay as well as the us. I'm not saying such jobs don't exist, but they are very very rare. Otherwise 500k USD is at least director level comp in the UK.

It’s not just London- there is no country which pays as much as the US

Agreed on the above. You basically need to move to the US internally somehow or work for a HF or take a contract role (different taxes so you save more).
