Staff Job Families
and Market Ranges
We’re glad you’re considering launching — or advancing — your career within the UT System. Pay is an important part of the decision process, and we’re committed to providing the information you need to feel confident about your next step.
Every UT staff position is part of a job family — groupings based on similar work, skills and training. Each job family is assigned a market range, which reflects the typical pay for those roles based on job responsibilities, required qualifications and competitive market data.
We invite you to explore the table below to better understand how pay is determined within the UT System.
