Data Science Jobs Salary Calculator 2025: Find Out What You Should Earn in the UK

Why last year’s pay survey is already out of date for UK data scientists “Am I being paid enough?” Every data professional eventually asks that question—often after a teammate reveals a hefty counter‑offer, a recruiter shares a six‑figure opening, or a headline trumpets the latest multimillion‑pound AI investment. Yet salary guides published even twelve months ago belong in a museum. Generative‑AI hype re‑priced Machine‑Learning Engineer roles, LLM fine‑tuning turned Prompt Engineering into a genuine career path, & fresh regulation forced companies to hire Responsible‑AI Officers on senior‑scientist money. To cut through the noise, DataScience‑Jobs.co.uk distilled a transparent, three‑factor formula. Insert your role, your region, & your seniority, and you’ll get a realistic 2025 salary benchmark—no stale averages, no vague ranges. This article walks you through the formula, examines the forces pushing data‑science pay ever higher, and offers five concrete actions to boost your market value within ninety days.
