Museums Association Salary Guidelines 2022

Owner Museums Association (MA)

Date published 2022

To address the issue of pay in the museum sector, the Museums Association (MA) has produced Salary Guidelines 2022, drawing on a report conducted by specialist research company Incomes Data Research. The guidelines are intended as a practical document to be used when setting starting salaries for museums posts. They can also be used as an advocacy tool to raise the issue of pay with employers and funding bodies. The MA will continue to revise these guidelines in future.

This report aims to provide clear and accurate data on the current state of pay levels in the museum sector, covering both support and specialist jobs as well as management. It also examines staff benefits, and some of the changes that have occurred since our previous Salary Guidelines were published in 2017.
