Each year QAagency runs an Employment Survey focused on quality assurance, compliance and technical roles across the UK. We gather detailed insight from candidates on salary, job security, working patterns and day to day responsibilities.

The results are shared with both candidates and clients. Whether you are benchmarking pay, planning a new hire or reviewing retention across your quality team, having current and role-specific market data is essential.

Our 2026 Employment Survey goes beyond headline salary figures. We analyse salary movement year on year, five-year trends, regional variation and how factors such as regulation, audit responsibility and system ownership influence pay across different QA roles and sectors.
