Can we compare only against other trust and fund businesses?

Yes. Every dashboard filters by industry, including trust and fiduciary services, fund administration and investment management. To protect anonymity, a result only shows when enough organisations and records sit behind it, so a very narrow filter can fall back to the wider island market until the pool is deep enough.

Will other organisations see our salary data?

No. Contributions are anonymised and aggregated. You see the shape of the market, never an individual salary or an identifiable organisation, and no result is shown unless several other employers sit behind it.

Does PayPulse tell us what to pay?

No, and it should not. PayPulse shows you where the market sits for a role and level. Where you position pay against that evidence stays your decision.

Which markets do you cover?

Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man, each benchmarked as its own market and refreshed periodically as new data reaches the pool.

The problem

A small market with a long memory.

London numbers do not transfer
Salary surveys built for London or the UK regions describe a different market. Trust and fund pay on the islands has its own shape, and a UK number can be wrong in either direction.
Everyone hires from the same pool
Experienced administrators and fund accountants are few, and every trust and fund business is chasing them. When a competitor improves an offer, your team hears about it within the week.
Progression is hard to price
Administrator, senior, manager, director: each step carries a pay expectation, and the gaps between steps are where good people leave.

How PayPulse helps

Evidence for every pay conversation.

Filter the market to your industry
Every dashboard filters by industry, so you can compare against other trust, fund administration and investment management employers where the pool is deep enough, or against the whole island market when you want the wider view.
AI matching on your job descriptions
Paste a job description and the AI leveller places the role on the PayPulse framework, so every comparison is like for like rather than whatever shares the title.
New-joiner pay trends
What new hires signed for in recent months against what incumbents earn, so you spot pay inflation in a family before it reaches your team.
Regulated appointments in view
Senior levelling asks about regulated appointments such as MLRO or MLCO and principal or key person roles, so senior roles are placed with that responsibility in view.
