Calculate your hourly pay →Salary to hourly rate, with your take-home pay
Enter your pay and weekly hours in the interactive calculator to see hourly, daily, weekly, monthly and yearly figures. It uses current 2026/27 HMRC tax rates and compares your wage with the £12.71 National Living Wage.
The result separates your gross rate from the amount you keep after tax and National Insurance, so it is useful for comparing job offers, promotions, contracts and overtime.
