One Brit and Aussie academic describe what its like to cross the globe for work: To put it bluntly, academic salaries in Australia are much higher than the UK. In my field, staff in permanent positions can earn twice as much by working in Australia, especially those in mid-level and senior positions. Of course, in some Australian cities a seemingly high salary is quickly eaten away by eye-watering costs of living; and early-career and non-permanent staff get some pretty shoddy treatment in both countries. However, I am concerned that the UK academy should not become a hobby farm for those who were born or married into wealth.
