Hi Freddie,


For those who join either the Army Foundation College Harrogate or through senior entry (over 18), the starting salary is £25,200. Unless you are professionally qualified in a specific area, then the salary would be higher.


As you advance in your Army career and achieve higher ranks, your pay will increase accordingly which can be seen below.


  • Recruits & Privates: £25,200 a year
  • Lance Corporal: £32,615 a year
  • Corporal: £37,861 a year
  • Sergeant: £42,510 a year


Hope this helps :)
