    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 :)
