In line with the Government’s policy on transparency, HS2 Ltd publishes details of employees who receive more than £150,000 per annum on the Cabinet Office website, HS2 Ltd’s incoming HR Director’s details will be published in line with this policy once they have taken up their post. This can be found through the following link: www.gov.uk/government/publications/senior-officials-high-earners-salaries

HS2 Ltd does not publish details of individual salaries below £150k per annum. However the below table sets out the grades and pay ranges for each of the positions referred to:
