	However, the Chief Exec deserves to be paid the going rate for the job.
 


	Wouldn't it be great if the extra cash could be spread down the whole workforce though.</description><pubDate>Sun, 16 Nov 2025 23:12:49 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Chief Executive pay increase</title><link><![CDATA[https://www.shetlink.com/index.php?/forums/topic/40404-chief-executive-pay-increase/&do=findComment&comment=264295]]></link><description>Not many of us left Davie.

	I've done some research (ie a quick google) and I would say it is an unremarkable salary for the responsibilities of the job. And being in the public sector there are none of the perks that a private sector organisation would offer, such as profit sharing and share options.</description><pubDate>Thu, 13 Nov 2025 22:13:19 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Chief Executive pay increase</title><link><![CDATA[https://www.shetlink.com/index.php?/forums/topic/40404-chief-executive-pay-increase/&do=findComment&comment=264294]]></link><description>Wow, it's been a long time since I've been on here!

	What do you think about the Chief Executive's pay uplift? I'm sure it's a weighty job and not one I'd like to do, but is it a proportionate increase?
