There are several reasons for the differences seen across the UK. The size of the region and the extent of the travel that sales people are expected to do has an impact on increasing basic salaries – the Southern territories have higher basic salaries because they often demand more travel. This can also be reflected in the bonus for that area.

Other factors include the cost of living. London and the South East are known to be expensive areas to live, so salaries reflect that accordingly.
