Executive summary

How our reward package sits against similar UK organisations. Figures under 5 organisations suppressed throughout.
P58Overall position — broadly in line with the market
36 / 52Answered metrics within the on-market band
4Gaps flagged as worth a look

Northgate's reward package sits broadly in line with the market overall, with clear strengths in pension and benefits and a small number of gaps that are worth a decision this cycle. The most material is annual leave, which sits in the bottom quarter of the market, and the absence of private medical cover, now common among peers. Pension provision is a genuine strength — ahead of roughly three in four comparable organisations. None of the figures below rests on fewer than five organisations; each carries its peer group and sample size so it can be cited directly in committee.

The evidence

The distribution behind two headline figures.
Annual leave allowance (days)Below market
All peers · n=96
P50 · 25 days P10 P90 You · 23
You give 23 days — below about 3 in 4 comparable organisations (P24). Moving to the market median of 25 days would bring Northgate into line on a benefit staff notice quickly.
Employer pension contributionAbove market
All peers · n=181
P50 · 6% P10 P90 You · 8%
You contribute 8% — ahead of about 3 in 4 comparable organisations (P74). A genuine strength worth protecting and stating in the retention story.

Where to look first

Indicative, for discussion — not a recommendation. lumi flags; the committee decides.
Annual leaveBottom-quartile against the market on a visible, low-cost-to-move benefit — the clearest single gap to close this cycle.
Private medicalNow common among peers and absent here; worth a deliberate decision (offer, or decide not to and hold the line knowingly).
GovernancePay-gap analysis cadence trails the market as transparency expectations rise — a low-cost, high-signal area to tighten.
