You will find that within mechanical engineering design departments, there are 3 basic levels beneath the first "management" level.
At the bottom you have jobs like development technician, cad technician, tracer, draughtsperson, & detail draughtsperson.
At the next level, any of the previous with the word "senior" in front, as well as design draughtsperson, design engineer, project engineer.
Ar the highest non management level, you will typically find senior or principle design engineer, senior or principle project engineer.
You would typically find that the lowest level would pay in the region of Ł15k - Ł25k, the middle level around Ł20k - Ł30k, and the top level perhaps Ł25k - Ł40k.
Of course I am generalising here, and the specific industry can make a significant difference (pharmaceuticals pays more for instance) but this is basically how it is. People leaving uni & walking into jobs paying Ł40k are very much in the minority!
