Building a defensible range
A range you cannot justify collapses on first challenge. Build it from three inputs: published salary surveys for your discipline and region, adverts that state ranges at the same seniority, and what peers in comparable roles report.
Express it as a band with a floor you would genuinely accept. Anchor slightly above your target, never below your floor, and be ready to explain in one sentence why that band matches the scope of the role.
Three inputs: surveys, adverts, peers; express a band with a real floor; justify against role scope.
