From my experience of being converted from Contract to Perm, you will need to attain 2x High Achiever grade by right. It is not easy getting this grade, so work with your RO on how to allocate tasks to you that make you shine. Need your RO to fight for you. Compliments from the team that you're supporting also help.

How is the salary like for roles such as application infrastructure engineer, grade G, what is the highest ceiling possible?

Indeed, HA is quite difficult to get, and requires you to have a good relationship with your RO, your RO, and even your RO's RO, to have the will and ability to fight for you. If you have this, you're very lucky.

Most won't stay past 2 to 4 years, especially those in tech roles.

So perm or contract doesn't really matter.

That's not true, TAP on 2 years contract and thereafter, they need to join a team to be perm.
