Since leaving the sme I have been at 3 different banks.

Definitely jumping is critical in helping to compensate for my poor starting base. I used the first bank I joined as a springboard, racking up the necessary exp and skillset needed for the role. The base pay wasn't much higher than at the sme, but they paid good bonuses. Spent about 2 years there and jumped after that to banks 2 and 3, getting healthy increments both times.

If I had stayed at bank 1 throughout, I would probably only be at 55k base now.
