How pay works at a central government body

Civil Service pay is set by grade — from Administrative Officer up through Executive Officer, the Higher and Senior Executive Officer grades, and the Grade 7/6 and Senior Civil Service tiers. Each department sets its own ranges within its pay remit, so the same grade pays differently across departments, and London roles carry a separate national/London range.

How to apply to UK Research and Innovation

Recruitment runs on Success Profiles: a mix of behaviours, strengths, experience, technical skills and ability, with the advert stating which apply and which are lead criteria. Behaviour examples are written to the published framework at the level of the grade advertised, normally in STAR form. The sift is anonymised, so what counts is the evidence, not where you worked.
