Two things are said to contribute the most to job satisfaction: how happy you are with your day-to-day working life and being paid enough to live comfortably. Any role ticking both boxes is a winner and now the UK’s happiest jobs with the highest salaries in 2022 have been revealed, Lad Bible reports.
The new research from Glassdoor, factors in both the average wage and the job satisfaction score and surprisingly the top five roles have nothing to do with working with animals, taste testing food or driving fast cars.
5. At number five is a user experience (UX) designer, who is responsible for the process of creating evidence-based interaction designs between human users and products or websites.
Focusing on all aspects of a product's development, including design, usability, function and branding and marketing, they find new opportunities for products and business and ensure the user gets the most out of the service.
As for the checkboxes, the average wage for a UX designer is a respectable £46,382 per year, and it comes with a job satisfaction score of 4.26 out of 5.
4. Fourth on the list is HR business partner, a role that demands someone with experience in human resources.
With an average salary of £50,000, the role requires the development and implementation of an HR agenda that fits in with the company’s ethos and objectives. This position received a Glassdoor score of 4.30.
3. At number three is a full stack engineer, a Jack of all trades in the world of software programming. They can use their skills in coding for a website, application and software development, in both the front and back end; the’ full stack’.
Ranking on Glassdoor with a 4.32 job satisfaction score, a full-stack engineer can expect an average yearly wage of £47,320.
2. Second place is linked to the fourth, HR manager. While the HR business partner is responsible for developing and implementing the HR agenda, the manager of this department will lead and direct its routine functions.
This includes tasks such as hiring and interviewing staff, administering pay, benefits and leave and enforcing company policies and practices.
Out of a possible score of 5, this position gets a 4.39 and its median wage is listed on Glassdoor as £48,443.
1. The happiest job on the list - with a score of 4.59 - has the lowest average salary of the top five. However, the number one role still commands £46,215, which isn’t to be sniffed at.
The role in question is a corporate recruiter; someone who recruits employees within their own company.
