The Crown Prosecution Service has fixed rates for its Executive Officer grade - a developing rate (the starting salary) and a spot rate (the maximum salary). Applicants typically join us on the developing rate and, after completing a 15-month development period, move to the spot rate if your line manager confirms you're performing the role to a satisfactory standard.
