I can't be sure as the pay-scale will get a revision once every few years. We've just had a revision and our pay were adjusted upwards, not alot but better than nothing.

from your qualification and experience, I believe you're more suited to be a course manager or a section head, i.e management role. however, if there is no such opening then your next best bet is a Senior Lecturer post, hence, the PAX4A ranking.

i can't answer you on your chances of being recruited, many factors to it. anyway, I wish you all the best.

Very unlikely you'd be allowed to get into Course Manager appointment as a new hire though - too much at risk as you'd be unfamiliar with the many things involved in course curriculum, design and pedagogy, procedures, etc. Maybe a small possibility as a course-level Section Head but I also feel very unlikely. At best, maybe a function-level Section Head.
I will accept any offers above 6K (> 20% paycut). Of course provided they accept me
