Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Glassdoor, the jobs marketplace, has released a ranking of the UK jobs where workers can expect to see the biggest increase in their salaries as their career progresses.

The first report of its kind created by Glassdoor took into account 18,125 different UK salaries, and compared salaries for entry level workers in different jobs, with those employees with more than eight years experience.

Jobs included with the biggest increases spread across a variety of disciplines, including marketing, IT, and design.

Commenting on the findings, Diarmuid Russell, Glassdoor Head of International said: "When you’re thinking about a new career, it’s tempting to be drawn to the highest paying roles. But it’s even more important to understand how pay can progress in an industry throughout your career."
