UK Indie publisher staff see pay and benefits rise

Staff at independent publishers have seen increases in pay and benefits over the last three years, according to the IPG's most recent salary survey.

The survey, conducted in February and March with 72 IPG companies contributing data, showed that two out of every five IPG member directors were paid in the £60,000-plus range, compared to a third at the time of the IPG's last salary survey in 2009. The most common pay bracket for managers was £35,000 to £40,000, up from £25,000 to £30,000 in 2009.
